Intro

She was sweet and seventeen

 first time from home

 he was a stranger to her and in the town

 where they first met

 in a club in Paris

long time ago

Chorus

This is how the fairy-tale begins

 a tale of true love //2x

She'd changed into an angel

 shining wisdom and love

 when they met again

 she'd chosen him to be

 her first man the first time

 in tenderness and warmth

And then they felt real love

 as it's meant to be

 so deeply, so true

 universal and free

 without a thought of distrust

 together they grew

Chorus

This is how the fairy-tale goes on

 a tale of true love //2x

He never thought that this could change

 she was a dream come true

he made her a woman

 she'd healed his wounds

 so their minds and their hearts

 and bodies were one

But the gods have chosen another destiny

and after several years she knew

 she had to go and left him

 cause angels are free like the wind

Bridge

Since then, they're separated

 still there's this love they had

even though they've taken separate ways

 they belong together for always

Chorus

This is how the fairy-tale goes on

 a tale of true love //2x

Outro

This is a tale of real love //2x

real love
