Reality
Every girl writes their own fairytale,
But you're the author that I choose to love,
That I choose to love, love, love.
You imagine me a hero,
But I never said I'd save the world,
I never claimed to wear a crown.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We might have to compromise
I can't be Darcy when my face don't fit,
Yet I'm centre stage in your fantasy,
I'm vital to your masterpiece.
I'll play your lead but I am not the plot,
I've been honest from the very start,
I never promised you the stars.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We might have to compromise.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We are gonna have to compromise sometimes.
These fairytales stay out of reach,
If you can't paint life's black and white,
Reality.
Building towers just to high to climb,
Let's not make ourselves too hard to please,
It would be enough for me.
And if our castle lies on terraced streets,
And you agreed you'd be my noble queen,
It would be enough for me.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We might have to compromise.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We are gonna have to compromise sometimes.
These fairytales stay out of reach,
If you can't paint life's black and white,
Reality.
Cuz these fairytales stay out of reach,
If you can't paint life's black and white,
Reality.
But you're the author that I choose to love,
That I choose to love, love, love.
You imagine me a hero,
But I never said I'd save the world,
I never claimed to wear a crown.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We might have to compromise
I can't be Darcy when my face don't fit,
Yet I'm centre stage in your fantasy,
I'm vital to your masterpiece.
I'll play your lead but I am not the plot,
I've been honest from the very start,
I never promised you the stars.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We might have to compromise.
Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We are gonna have to compromise sometimes.
These fairytales stay out of reach,
If you can't paint life's black and white,

And if our castle lies on terraced streets,
And you agreed you'd be my noble queen,

Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,

Cuz maybe I will never be everything you ask of me,
We are gonna have to compromise sometimes.
These fairytales stay out of reach,
If you can't paint life's black and white,
Reality.
Cuz these fairytales stay out of reach,
If you can't paint life's black and white,
Reality.
