Cinderella’s Soliloquy lyrics

[CINDERELLA]

I was fine on my own

Made of steel, hard as stone

I know I have a heart because you broke it

Didn't know what to do and now it's far too late

Far too late to sing a love song

You're in someone else's arms

Far too late for happy endings

My chance is gone

If I could

I would somehow turn the clock back

I might have a different fate

But it's far too—

What was I thinking when I've always known that I don't really belong here?

I can't help but wonder why it took so long to say so long, it's all wrong here

Why did I even want to get married?

Why live a life so dull and unvaried?

I have been nowhere and it's time for me to go where life is free

Look at me, Cinderella, with the wind in my sails

I will never look behind me

You won't see Cinderella, I'll be off blazing trails

Where no one I know can find me

Pack up all my things, I'll leave no traces

Forwarding address? All unknown places

Solely on my own with no apron strings

I will spread my wings

Look at me, Cinderella, flying high in the skies

With her eyes on the horizon

I'll be free, Cinderella, there will be no goodbyes

And no ties to compromise me

Think of me gone

'Cause I'll be gone

I'll forget you
