About

This song is Shrek and Fiona’s first meeting when he arrives to rescue her from her tower. Fiona’s “knight in shining armor” is not at all what she expected.

This Is How a Dream Comes True Lyrics

[FIONA, spoken]
Now holdest on, Sir Shrek
Don't you want to savor this moment?
It be'th our first meeting
It must be a wonderful and romantic scene
(sung)
This is how a dream comes true
This is how I pictured you
Climbing in to rescue me
This was always meant to be

[SHREK, spoken]
Oh jeez I'm like a crackpot magnet!

[FIONA]
This is how the scene must go
You standing there, the light just so
Then you smile and gaze at me
Take my hand on bended knee
Bended knee, bended knee

[SHREK, spoken]
Ow!

[FIONA, spoken]
Sorry
(sung)
And though we've only met
Somehow I always knew
It would look like this
When dreams come true

[DONKEY]
Shrek!

[FIONA]
Brave sir knight, slow down a bit
Shut-in girls are delicate
I've longed for this my whole life long
Now you're doing it all wrong

Down a rope, a steed awaits
That's what every story states
Riding over rough terrain
Past the dragon you have slain
You have slain
(spoken)
You have slain?

[SHREK, spoken]
It's on my to-do list

[FIONA, spoken]
What!?

[DRAGON]
Ah!

[FIONA]
Are you there, God?
It's me, Fiona

[SHREK, spoken]
Less praying, more running!

[FIONA]
Tra-la-la-la-la

[SHREK, spoken]
This way instead!

[FIONA]
Tra-la-la-la-la

[SHREK, spoken]
Door ahead!

[FIONA]
In the end, remember
All your dreams come true

Say your affirmations
And love will come to you
If you can conceive it
Believe it, achieve it

Mad dragon, yay
Skeletons, hurray
Pretending I'm not here
Nothing more to fear

Pink ponies, happy sky
Pink ponies, happy sky
Oh my God, we're gonna die

This is how I pictured it
More or less I must admit
A thumping in my heart
A life about to start

I knew this day would come
And you would find your way
At last my dream comes true
I knew, I knew, I knew it would be today
