Fairy Tale

[Verse 1]
You'd think that time would be a teacher
That maybe history would make us wise
But surely by now we would learn somehow
To see with our hearts even more than our eyes
Oh, why?
Now would it be so hard to imagine
Livin' every day by the golden rule
Knowing inside we're exactly alike
We could change the world forever, it would be so cool
Oh, why?

[Chorus]
But we keep doing the same things all over again
Creating the same pain and turning our friends into enemies
It's like we just can't be happy if we aren't at war
God must be sad we can't lay down our sword sometimes
I wish that hate would never win, love would never fail
And life could just be more like a fairy tale
(A fairy tale)

[Verse 2]
We could float on clouds of cotton candy
Go sailing on a bubblegum ocean of blue
And strawberry kisses would be little kid wishes
That we could see each other the way they do
Oh, why?

[Chorus]
But we keep doing the same things all over again
Creating the same pain and turning our friends into enemies
It's like we just can't be happy if we aren't at war
God must be sad we can't lay down our sword sometimes
I wish that hate would never win, love would never fail
And life could just be more like a fairy tale

[Chorus]
But we keep doing the same things all over again
Creating the same pain and turning our friends into enemies
It's like we just can't be happy if we aren't at war
God must be sad we can't lay down our sword sometimes
I wish that hate would never win, love would never fail
And life could just be more like a fairy tale
(A fairy tale)
I wish that hate would never win, love would never fail
And life could just be more like a fairy tale
A fairy tale
(A fairy tale)
