Lyrics Storybook Love - Mark Knopfler, Willy DeVille

Storybook Love

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
Now this did happen once upon the time
When things were not so complex
And how he worshipped the board she walked
And when he looked in her eyes he become 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 the 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
