lyrics

She only dreamed of him once,
Spiral staircase to the room beneath the tower,
The witch was waiting for her,
The trap was set and she knew that he'd betrayed her
And so she woke
With tears in her eyes

And in the cold light of day,
They talked of trust and how hard it is to find it,
Despite the jokes that they made,
She knew then that she would trust him with anything
Except her heart
But it's too late

Because she knows what he's worth
But she can’t shake the feeling
That the closer they get the more it will hurt
And the witch will win out
Because he can’t be her hero
He’s got beasts of his own that he needs to tame

She knows he’s got a good heart
But he’s built up a wall to protect himself
She has her own path to tread
She’s not the one to break down his defences
But she hopes in time
Their roads will meet

Because she knows what he's worth
But she can’t shake the feeling
That the closer they get the more it will hurt
And the witch will win out
Because he can’t be her hero
He’s got beasts of his own that he needs to tame

Oh she knows what he's worth
Even if he can’t see it
And he will still have her heart,
Even though it won’t show
She’s got beasts of her own
And she doesn’t need a hero
So it’s better for both if they just let go
