Description
Sometimes we can sleepwalk through our lives without realizing what is missing. This story song is about one woman's awakening on a winter day.
As usual, my focus here was on lyric and melody.

Lyrics
Lived my life in narrow ways
Wonder Bread and mayonnaise
Worked a job from nine to five
I never knew that I was alive
Year by year in russet hues
Work until the evening news
Steady stream of dingy days
Lived my life in narrow ways
I don't believe
In Fairy Tales
I don't believe
In Holy Grails
I don't believe
In shining knight
But I believe in love
At first sight
One chill day in Rosemont Square
I glanced left and you were there
I tripped and sprawled, no grace at all
What a time to take a fall
You rushed over, all concerned
Embarrassment throughout me burned
Could a handsome stranger care
One chill day in Rosemont Square
I don't believe
In Fairy Tales
I don't believe
In Holy Grails
I don't believe
In shining knight
But I believe in love
At first sight
Loneliness was cast away
Your hand in mine, a passion play
Your cheeks were frosted cherry red
Hair like fresh-baked gingerbread
Blue eyes held mine; I tasted sky
Knew that I had found my guy
A miracle on that chill day
Loneliness was cast away
I don't believe
In Fairy Tales
I don't believe
In Holy Grails
I don't believe
In shining knight
But I believe in love
At first sight
I don't believe
In Fairy Tales
I don't believe
In Holy Grails
I don't believe
In shining knight
But I believe in love
At first sight

Your voice is like the limbo... How LOOOOOOOW can you
go? ;-)
Simple song (music wise, I would have liked to hear the
awakening), but some nice emotions in there. You have a
very interesting voice.
