The Perfect Farewell

If only someone as wonderful as you

came and saved me
brought me to a better day
sang a song of love
for days

If only the fairy tale
I've always dreamnt of
suddenly appeared
from their tattered pages
would you appear with it?

My heart is beating louder each minute.
My head is spinning 'round and 'round
If only you'd come and save me
we could end with the perfect farewell.
