Fairy tale, my favorite fairy tale, Is the one I live with wonderful you, Life is so grand, a fabulous fairyland, And we walk it hand in hand as lovers do, Fantasy became a reality, With your tender kiss you open the door, You are marvelous, divine, Aladdin's lamp did shine, The magic days that you were mine, Fairy tale, our love is a fairy tale, And it never has been told before.

It's not what you're told It's not her face It's not his touch In the room you both share Where he's gone when he loved When your time and your memory fills your dreams When you're honest and together Together no more No more Hallelujah, until you're nothing Hallelujah, baby, until she's everywhere Hallelujah, until together you are somewhere I'd lost Hallelujah, Hallelujah.

Maybe I’ll be there to shake your hand Maybe I’ll be there to share the land That they’ll be giving away When we all live together.
