Ten Minutes Ago

Brandy · Other Songs - Brandy

[Prince]

Ten minutes ago I saw you

I looked up when you came through the door

My head started reeling

You gave me the feeling

The room had no ceiling or floor

Ten minutes ago I met you

And we murmured our how-do-you-do's

I wanted to ring out the bells

And fling out my arms and to sing out the news

I have found her, she's an angel

With the dust of the stars in her eyes

We are dancing, we are flying

And she's taking me back to the skies

In the arms of my love i'm flying

Over mountain and meadow and glen

And I like it so well, that for all I can tell

I may never come down again

I may never come down to earth again.



[Cinderella]

Ten minutes ago I met you

And we murmured our how-do-you-do's

I wanted to ring out the bells

And fling out my arms and to sing out the news



[Prince]

I have found her



[Cinderella]

I have found him



[Cinderella & Prince]

In the arms of my love I'm flying

Over mountain and meadow and glen

And I like it so well

That for all I can tell

I may never come down again

I may never come down to earth again
