歌詞

You stare at me with eyes so straight and bright

The most radiant thing in the middle of the night

It’s blinding, the way you look my way

So I act like I don't notice, turning away

I’m running, I’m hiding, keeping out of your sight

So you won't catch me in your golden light

Is this a game? Did you make a little bet?

To see if you could make me fall for you yet?

To believe in a fairy tale at my age

Would be like trying to turn a burned-out page

It’s impossible now, the magic has gone

It’s too late for me to keep holding on

You’re just teasing me, yeah, I know that it’s true

A guy like you has better things to do

I’m exhausted by life, I’ve seen enough gray

A woman like me is just in your way

I’m no fun to play with, I’m cynical and worn

My heart has been weathered, my spirit is torn

A whim, a distraction, a way to kill time

Your "mischief" is starting to feel like a crime

That gentle smile—who is it really for?

That gentle warmth—what are you looking for?

To believe in a fairy tale, to trust in a dream

It’s just not as easy as you make it seem

It’s impossible now, the magic has gone

It’s too late for me to keep holding on

Don't look at me so straight

Don't be so kind

It’s already too late

Yeah, it’s far too late

For a story like this
