This sort of love is not allowed
She is a princess
And you come from the streets
But oh, how she envies you
Just because you can't be together
Doesn't mean she can't love you
You are never too old to change the world
Or to travel it
She was his salvation
He reached out for things he could not hold
He was her hope
She reached out for things she could not see
She had a problem with authority figures
Misogynist suitors
Men who just wanted to be king
Not men who just wanted to be with her
She is played by men
In a game of chess
Where they tell her where and when to move
And she listens
"What other choice do we have? "
This is where she takes action
She teaches herself
How to play the game
Femininity is not for men to define
Or for her to adhere to
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
Sometimes we only see
How people are different than us
But if you look hard enough
You'll see how much we're all the same
No one has a genie
There are no wishes left
Travel
Take the risk
See the sights you always wanted to
Do the things you never dared
Watch the endless sky
The sun setting and rising on your life
Meet new people
Talk to strangers
Oh yeah
I ain't never had a friend like you
*****
Do you trust me?
