Fairytale Lyrics - Wilderness - Cowboy Junkies

There's a rock and a field and a dirty sky. 

I'm still as corpse, I'm content as a bride, 

Thoughts of you and those flyin' shoes 

All around me. 

One wrong step and it's a long way down 

So I triple check the hand holds, stand on firmer ground, 

But it's not so easy when the whole mountains 

Coming down on you. 

So we wait for the morning when we'll stumble on the truth. 

Probably fail to recognize it, as we're digging at its roots, 

The sorrow and the anger that we've sown 

In the fields all around us. 

Hey little princess, hey little pea, 

Come down from your tower and dance with me. 

Yah you're the fairest one in the land. 

Try on this glass slipper and give me your hand.

There's a rock and a field and a collapsing sky. 

I'm precious as a snowman, fragile as a lie, 

Thoughts of you and those flyin' shoes 

All around me. 

I'm afraid of the anger of the hard twisted heart 

That beats in the chests of those that are caught 

In the ruins of the lives of those 

All around them. 

I'm sick of the blood and I'm sick of the bleeding, 

The effort it takes just to keep on dreaming 

Of better days, and better ways 

Of living. 

Hey little princess, hey little pea, 

Come down from your tower and dance with me. 

Yah, you're the fairest one in the land. 

Try on this glass slipper and give me your hand.
