Found this song today, original by Willie DeVille, now re-made by Mark Knopfler. It is on my playlist if you want to hear it, I just love it....
I have this feeling it was in the Princess Bride, I'll have to look it up.
Later... Yes, it was in the Princess Bride. I guess I am feeling more nostalgic than I realized.
Even later...( I have actually listened to this song over and over again today. I feel like when I was thirteen years old and I could press the rewind button on the tape player).
Come my love I'll tell you a tale,
Of a boy and girl
And their love story.
And how he loved her oh so much,
and all the charms she did possess
Now this did happen once upon a time,
When things were not so complex.
And how he worshiped the ground she walked,
And when he looked in her eyes he became obsessed.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
His love was stronger than the power so dark,
A prince could have within his keeping.
His spells to weave and steal her heart,
Within her heart but only sleeping.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
And he said:
"Don't you know i love you oh, so much,
and lay my heart at the foot of your dress."
And she said:
"Don't you know that storybook loves,
Always have a happy ending."
Then he swooped her up just like in the books
And on his stalion the rode away.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
My love is like a storybook story,
But its as real as the feelings I feel.
