Today was a fairytale You were the prince I used to be a damsel in distress You took me by the hand and you picked me up at six Today was a fairytale Today was a fairytale Today was a fairytale I wore a dress You wore a dark gray t-shirt You told me I was pretty when I looked like a mess Today was a fairytale Time slows down whenever you're around But can you feel this magic in the air? It must have been the way you kissed me Fell in love when I saw you standing there It must have been the way Today was a fairytale It must have been the way Today was a fairytale Today was a fairytale You've got a smile that takes me to another planet Every move you make everything you say is right Today was a fairytale Today was a fairytale All that I can say is now it's getting so much clearer Nothin' made sense 'til the time I saw your face Today was a fairytale Time slows down whenever you're around Yeah yeah But can you feel this magic in the air? It must have been the way you kissed me Fell in love when I saw you standing there It must have been the way Today was a fairytale It must have been the way Today was a fairytale Time slows down whenever you're around I can feel my heart It's beating in my chest Did you feel it? I can't put this down But can you feel this magic in the air? It must have been the way you kissed me Fell in love when I saw you standing there It must have been the way But can you feel this magic in the air? It must have been the way you kissed me Fell in love when I saw you standing there It must have been the way Today was a fairytale It must have been the way Today was a fairytale Oh oh yeah yeah oh Today was a fairytale
