Midnight To Cinderella

Midnight To Cinderella

Lyrics & Music by Paulette Miechle Paulette ‘For A Song’ 2001 ASCAP

Once upon a time I had the perfect house & garden and
some say I had the perfect man to last me all my life
all sewn up in silken seams and no idea what it means
to take it all for granted and then lose it overnight

chours: It's like midnight to Cinderella, midnight to Cinderella,
midnight to Cinderella. That's right, it's over at midnight

When the house of cards came down it fell like ashes to the ground
through imperfect fingers slipped the ring that held the wife
perfect things just fell apart. Pride in dreams just broke the heart
unkind things can happen once upon a perfect life

chours: It's like midnight to Cinderella, midnight to Cinderella,
midnight to Cinderella. That's right, it's over at midnight

bridge: I don't want to be starting over now
I feel like I've done it all somehow
And really, I've got nothing left to lose
This was never my dress, these were never my shoes

chours: It's like midnight to Cinderella, midnight to Cinderella,
midnight to Cinderella. That's right, it's over at midnight.

bridge: I don't want to be starting over now
I feel like I've done it all somehow
And really I've got nothing left to lose
This was never my dress, these were never my shoes

chours: Midnight to Cinderella, midnight to Cinderella,
midnight to Cinderella. That's right, it's over at midnight
Oh, oh that's right, I forgot about midnight
