Society's "prince charming"
is a lie I'm tired
of dealing with.
See, I got this guy
and he's definitely
not perfect.
Can't always make
me feel better,
sometimes drives me
completely insane.
Doesn't say good morning
every morning,
doesn't act like I'm
the main thing
in his life
'cause I'm not.
He's got his life
and I got mine
and they just happen
to coincide.
But he...
He's god eyes like
starlight,
got me makin'
a million wishes,
every night.
Got me sayin',
"hey, there's the big dipper!"
Keeping me fascinated
like some little kid
with a toy telescope.
If his eyes are starlight,
then his smile is sunshine,
lighting up my world
albeit only part of the time.

In a life that's so grounded,
he provides me with a sky.
There's rain, storms, and lightning,
but he's so worth it, this guy
is NOT my prince charming;
maybe he's just
the frog.
But he's mine
and he's all
I'll ever need.
