Once Upon A Time...storybook Love Lyrics - Mark Knopfler

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 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

It's as real as the feelings I feel 

Now this did happen once upon a time 

When things were not so complex 

And how he worshipped the ground she walked on 

When he looked in her eyes, he became obsessed 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

It's as real as the feelings I feel 

This love was stronger than the powers so dark 

A prince could have within his keeping 

His spells to weave and steal a heart 

Within her breast, but only sleeping 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

It's as real as the feelings I feel 

He said, "Don't you know I love you oh, so much 

And lay my heart at the foot of your dress?" 

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 stallion they rode away 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

My love is like a storybook story 

But it's as real as the feelings I feel 

It's as real as the feelings I feel
