Lyrics

Cinderella in Satin

Black velvet high heels swaying, side to side
Lop-sided lipstick, grinning with pride
A long oval mirror; a little girl's fantasy
A make believe princess that looked just like me

Cinderella in satin (Chorus)
Dancing at the ball
That mirror told me I was
Fairest of them all
Nothing I couldn't be
No place I couldn't go
All dressed up in mama's clothes

Red velvet roses in a brides bouquet
My dad is waiting to give me away
Mama tried not to cry;I stood in her wedding gown
She smiled and squeezed my hand as our tears fell down (I felt like)

Cinderella in satin
Dancing at the ball
Mama told me I was
Fairest of them all
No place I'd rather be
Now it's time to go
I'm all dressed up in mama's clothes

(Bridge)
Now mama can't remember her Prince Charming in his chair
Her Cinderella dancing; and the secrets we shared
Robbed of precious memories only time could steal
Oh she may forget she loves me, but I never will (I was her)

Chorus w/tag
