vanessa carlton--Nolita fairytale

 

I know, you know,
We don't see
And so our truths wait patiently
I walk the streets with a song in my head
We ebb¹ and we flow so
Got my toes on my pup at the foot of my bed
My heart always seems to know
Now take the glitz back, I want the soul instead
'Cause I found some kind of fairytale

I used to
Hover² outside my truth
Always worried bout³ what I'd lose
Take away my record deal
Go on, I don't need it
Spent the last 2 years getting to what's real
And now I can see so clear
I hope you feel just like I feel
I found some kind of fairytale

Want a garden by the ocean tide
Cause I lose my way searching for stage lights
But Stevie knows and I thank her so
'Cause it's your seeds I sow⁴
And now I know
Nolita flat on rent control
That's the life I choose
Can't drag me to the fashion show
The poses⁵ that I see through
Ruby's in the afternoon
'Cause I found some kind of fairy...tale
(HEY!)
Nolita Fairytale (Ba da da da da da, Ba da da da da da)
Nolita Fairytale (Ba da da da da da, Ba da da da da da)
