It was a beautiful love song

1st Verse:
I had never been so happy, living my life with you,
I thought I had found my destiny, a dream come true;
My heart belonged to you, and to no other,
Because you had possessed me like some great, magical fakir.

The skies were clear, everyday was bright,
And in my happiness I owed God a requite;
But by your doing, fate or His will,
The days of enchantment trickled away like a meandering rill.

Chorus:
It was bound in leather, secured in its invulnerability,
A fairytale sung by the muses, in their purity;
But the tall tale could not survive erelong,
It was a fabrication...but once, it was a beautiful love song.
It was a beautiful love song,
Beautiful love song;
Once we were so strong,
Then it mysteriously went wrong,
But once upon a time...it was a beautiful love song.

2nd Verse:
You were my world, my universe,
You had me wrapped around your fingers, my heartstrings you coerced;
This marionette pranced and pawed at your every gesture,
But now I know the Devil was in disguise of a savior.

My parlor is now closed, I have resisted your force,
I have cut the ties at their source;
I have shelved the fairytale forevermore,
Closing my eyes to the fidelity lore.

Repeat Chorus:
It was bound in leather, secured with invulnerability,
A fairytale sung by the muses, in their purity;
But the tall tale could not survive erelong,
It was a fabrication...but once, it was a beautiful love song.
It was a beautiful love song,
Beautiful love song;
Once we were so strong,
Then it mysteriously went wrong,
But once upon a time...it was a beautiful love song.
