 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

There's a mountain and a valley far from here
And a castle in the mist where all the treetops disappear
And its towers can be seen from far away
But you can't step foot inside unless you pay

On a throne inside the hall there sits a queen
And they say that she's the prettiest that ever has been seen
And her goodness flowed like light from chandeliers
But the king beside her liked to rule with fear

All of those around her thought she had it all
Eyes of Winter, light as Spring, with all the warmness of the Fall
And the king once made her happy, so she said
But the slaps upon her face since made her dead

So to stand up to the king she never dared
She's a woman that looked strong but choked inside on her despair
And her intuition was to run away
But her inhibitions forced the girl to stay

So one night after the king was fast asleep
Fingers fastened on the dagger by their bed that she would keep
Weeping silently she lifted up the knife
But the act was what could bring her back to life

There's a mountain and a valley far from here
And a castle in the mist where all the treetops disappear
And the people in her kingdom all rejoiced
'Cause the queen had dared to exercise her choice
