What if Romeo didn’t call Juliet?
Left her stuck on a balcony waitin’
Didn’t plan a second date and
What if Prince Charming was way too guarded?
Hot and cold when it came to love
So he stood the princess up
As a kid you think of love the way it’s written
But growin’ up, it don’t play out how you envision
I wish the end of this story
Was you and I meant to be
Fireworks, champagne pourin’
Some kind of magic in the breeze
But this ain’t happy ever after
It turns out reality is
That I’m alone here in this stupid restaurant
Lookin’ my best
No knight in shinin’ armor tonight
Just a damsel in this dress
Hate that I spent half my paycheck
On this strapless little red number
‘Cause I know you love this color
And it’s too bright, kinda wish that
You were here to see me in it
Maybe then it’d all be different
I wish the end of this story
Was you and I meant to be
Fireworks, champagne pourin’
Some kind of magic in the breeze
But this ain’t happy ever after
It turns out reality is
That I’m alone here in this stupid restaurant
Lookin’ my best
No knight in shinin’ armor tonight
Just a damsel in this dress
You coulda called
Coulda told me you were runnin’ late
Showed up in the nick of time
Walked in and saved the day
Oh, I wish the end of this story
Was you and I meant to be
Fireworks, champagne pourin’
Some kind of magic in the breeze
But this ain’t happy ever after
It turns out reality is
I was alone here in this stupid restaurant
Lookin’ my best
With no knight in shinin’ armor
But I looked damn good in this dress
