A Dustland Fairytale Lyrics - Day & Age - The Killers

A Dustland fairytale beginning 

Or just another white trash county kiss 

In '61, long brown hair and foolish eyes 

He'd look just like you'd want him to 

Some kind of slick chrome American Prince 

A blue jean serenade and "Moon river", what you do to me? 

I don't believe you 

Saw Cinderella in a party dress 

But she was looking for a nightgown 

I saw the devil wrapping up his hands 

He's getting ready for the showdown 

I saw the minute that I turned away 

I got my money on a pawn tonight

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

A change came in disguise of revelation, set his soul on fire 

She said she always knew he'd come around 

And the decades disappear like sinking ships 

But we persevere, God gives us hope 

But we still fear what we don't know 

The mind is poisoned 

Castles in the sky sit stranded, vandalized 

The drawbridge is closin' 

Saw Cinderella in a party dress 

But she was looking for a nightgown 

I saw the devil wrapping up his hands 

He's getting ready for the showdown 

I saw the ending when they turned the page 

I threw my money and I ran away 

Straight to the valley of the great divide

Out where the dreams all hide 

Out where the wind don't blow 

Out here, the good girls die 

And the sky won't snow 

Out here the birds don't sing 

Out here the fields don't grow 

Out here the bell don't ring 

Out here the bell don't ring 

Out here the good girls die 

Now Cinderella, don't you go to sleep? 

It's such a bitter form of refuge 

Oh, don't you know, the kingdom's under siege 

And everybody needs you 

Is there still magic in the midnight sun 

Or did you leave it back in '61? 

In the cadence of a young man's eyes 

Out where the dreams all hide
