I once met a girl with raven-black hair
With a word and a smile I was hers
She told me her story of trying to trust
As she pushed past her life's saboteurs
With two children in tow from another life lived
The warrior in her stood strong
And I found myself fighting to stay who I was
While finding a way to belong
People aren't born afraid; they're taught to be
The things she had been through almost became
A wall between her world and me
It's not the fairytale romance we all dream about
But the stones on the path made us strong
Fifteen years of this ready-made life
Turned the stones to dust before long
The first-born was the girl on the moon
With a crutch and a chair and a smile
Funny girl trapped on a runaway ship
Overshadowed my life's biggest trial
Then Little Boy Blue scared he wouldn't be seen
And fighting to be his own man
The wonder in him awoke wonder in me
I never thought I'd feel again
I sang that Harry Chapin song a thousand times
As years go by I finally see
The reason in the rhymes
It's not the fairytale romance we all dream about
But the stones on the path made us strong
Fifteen years of this ready-made life
Turned the stones to dust before long
"Love's like the sea It's a moving thing
That takes its shape from the shore that it meets"
It gets pulled into life by its own gravity
And it turns with the two hearts that beat
It's not the fairytale romance we all dream about
But the stones on the path made us strong
Fifteen years of this ready-made life
Turned the stones to dust before long

I once met a girl with raven-black hair
With a word and a smile I was hers
She told me her story of trying to trust
As she pushed past her life's saboteurs
With two children in tow from another life lived
The warrior in her stood strong
And I found myself fighting to stay who I was
While finding a way to belong
People aren't born afraid; they're taught to be
The things she had been through almost became
A wall between her world and me
It's not the fairytale romance we all dream about
But the stones on the path made us strong
Fifteen years of this ready-made life
Turned the stones to dust before long
The first-born was the girl on the moon
With a crutch and a chair and a smile
Funny girl trapped on a runaway ship
Overshadowed my life's biggest trial
Then Little Boy Blue scared he wouldn't be seen
And fighting to be his own man
The wonder in him awoke wonder in me
I never thought I'd feel again
