Sitting on a log
hoping and wishing
true love will find me

I live under a spell
that was cast on me
I live by the river.

wishing someone is
praying and crying
for a frog-like me.

I must wait to see
what the moon has
for me in my frog
dream of what life could
truly be for me.

I dream of a prince
to find me and kiss me
to break the spell
and love me forever.

When the change comes
I will be so happy
to get out of the doom
of sadness, I am in.

Oh moon you will always
be my true friend
right to the very end

I like to be very quiet
you see not too make
anyone angry at me

I want my true freedom
I don't want my life
to end in a frog madness

I hopped back on-
the lily pad that sat in
the river I call home.
