Lyrics Cinderella's Soliloquy - Andrew Lloyd Webber, Carrie Hope Fletcher

Cinderella's Soliloquy

I was fine on my own
Made of steel, hard as stone
I know I have a heart because you broke it
Didn’t know what to do and now it’s far too late
Far too late to sing a love song
You’re in someone else’s arms
Far too late for happy endings
My chance is gone
If I could
I would somehow turn the clock back
I might have a different fate
But it’s far too—
What was I thinking when I’ve always known that I don’t really belong here?
I can’t help but wonder why it took so long to say so long, it’s all wrong here
Why did I even want to get married?
Why live a life so dull and unvaried?
I have been nowhere and it’s time for me to go where life is free
Look at me, Cinderella, with the wind in my sails
I will never look behind me
You won’t see Cinderella, I’ll be off blazing trails
Where no one I know can find me
Pack up all my things, I’ll leave no traces
Forwarding address? All unknown places
Solely on my own with no apron strings
I will spread my wings
Look at me, Cinderella, flying high in the skies
With her eyes on the horizon
I’ll be free, Cinderella, there will be no goodbyes
And no ties to compromise me
Think of me gone
'Cause I’ll be gone
I’ll forget you
