Like Cinderella Lyrics - Earl Thomas Conley

You stood there in the doorway bathe din golden candlelight 

While helpless hearts were melted by your style 

So many gazing faces swaying softly in the night 

Whose thoughts were making love to your sweet smile 

Your sweet smile 

Like Cinderella, you were the queen of the ball 

Yeah you were the fairest of all 

but why did I let you fall 

I tried to keep your love above me girl when you reached out and touched me 

But the music played for hours when the party was all over 

I tried to treat you like a lady when I heard about the baby 

oohh...oohh...oohh...oohh...oohh...oohh 

Now you lie there in your silence bathed in golden candlelight 

While the man is speaking softly your last rights 

And so many gazing faces crying softly in the night 

While helpless hearts all knelt there by your side 

By your side
