In a castle

Down a long road

A little girl was born

To a king and

To a queen and

Her mother’s eyes welled with tears of joy

Staring at the tiny face

Of a miracle she made

Summer came and went

Unrolling

Daddy’s little girl

In his arms, well

They sit upon his throne

Who is that thief
G
Hiding in the dark
B7 C
Just a little girl who stole his heart
[Chorus 2]

He would say I love you

He would say I love you

He would say I love you

With only these three words repeating

A simple greeting

We recognize

And a handsome prince is what she’ll get
