And the pretty lady wasn't all she seemed
By one little blue eyed princess
For he missed his little princess and his queen
He realized that he was wrong
So tonight before you'll go to sleep
And pray the Lord your soul to keep
And tears of joy came pouring down like rain
Still it's just another bedtime story
Then he was back and safe inside his castle
And in this castle lived a king and queen
Then it came to pass the king grew lonely
Still it's just another bedtime story
But then one day he met this pretty lady
Just another pretty bedtime story
But telling it brings teardrops to my eyes
And started his long journey home
'Cause, oh, what big eyes she had
Once upon a time there was a castle
They lived happy ever after
So please forgive Mommy if she cries
But telling it brings teardrops to my eyes
And she took his hand and led him far away
And she had lots of pretty words to say
Then the castle rang with laughter
Knowing he would never leave again
So please forgive Mommy if she cries
And this part makes your Mommy sad
And it came to pass they both were blessed
With the softest golden curls you've ever seen
Just another pretty bedtime story
Here's Mommy's favorite story one more time
