[Verse 1]

Once upon a time, you were mine

When we took flight like castles in the sky

And oh, your perfect looks had me hooked

This heart you took to castles in the sky

[Refrain]

Ah-ooh, could've been happy ever after

Ooh, could've been happy ever after

[Pre-Chorus]

Like Sleeping Beauty never woke up

Like Rapunzel, but he never climbed up

Cinderella never found the slipper

As for you

[Chorus]

You never stayed for love

Stay for love, stay for love, stay for love

And you stay for love, stay for love, stay for love

Stay for love now

[Post-Chorus]

You just tore out our last chapter

[Verse 2]

A long time ago, fantasies grew

But hearts were cold like castles in the sky

Prince that you once seemed, sold me a dream

Was it make-believe, like castles in the sky?

[Refrain]

Ah-ooh, could've been happy ever after

Ooh, could've been happy ever after

[Pre-Chorus]

Like Sleeping Beauty never woke up

Like Rapunzel, but he never climbed up

Cinderella never found the slipper

As for you

[Chorus]

You never stayed for love

Stay for love, stay for love, stay for love

And you stay for love, stay for love, stay for love

Stay for love now

[Bridge]

Our spark couldn't hold a flame

You play love like it's a game

Now look what we became

(Ah, ah, ah)

We sunk in stormy weather

You lost the hidden treasure

Now I'm so much better

(Ah, ah, ah)

[Chorus]

You never stayed for love

Stay for love, stay for love, stay for love

And you stay for love, stay for love, stay for love

Stay for love now

[Post-Chorus]

You just tore out our last chapter
