Lyrics
VERSE
Cinderella was the belle of the ball
If only somehow it could last
On the stroke of midnight, she would fall
Unless I could think of something fast
VERSE
Springing into action, I swept her off her feet
Out the door we ran into the beautiful night
If I could deal the midnight devil a crushing defeat
It would be such a wonderful sight
CHORUS
Now I'm just a guy who wants to be her fella
Want her to be my always Cinderella
If I were to cover her with love's umbrella
Could she really be my Cinderella bella?
VERSE
Should the spell be broken, I would lose her forever
All I could do was cover her with love
So just before midnight in a hopeful endeavor
I borrowed love's umbrella from heaven above
VERSE
At midnight's toll, we answered the bell
Believing no power could break love's spell
The next thing we knew, a million points of light
Led Cinderella, me, and love off into the night
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Always and forever, my Cinderella bella
