Cinderella

Britney Spears · Triple Feature [2012]

I used to be your girlfriend and I know I did it well

Oh yes, you know it's true

You'd call me Cinderella, all you had to do is yell

And I'd be there for you



Here I am

So try to forgive me

I don't believe in fairy tales

Here we are

With nothing but honesty

I've had enough

I'm not gonna stay



I'm sorry for running away like this

And I'm sorry

I've already made my wish

Ah ah, but Cinderella's got to go



From time to time I'd try to tell just what was on my mind

You told me not today

Come back, do that

Where's Cinderella at was all you had to say



Here I am

So try to forgive me

I don't believe in fairy tales

Here we are

with nothing but honesty

I've had enough

I'm not gonna stay



I'm sorry for running away like this

And I'm sorry I've already made my wish

Ah ah, but Cinderella's got to go

I'm sorry, just trying to live my life

Don't worry you're gonna be alright

But Cinderella's got to go



I used to say I want you

You cast me in your spell

I did everything you wanted me to... but now I shall

Break free from all your lies

I won't be blind, you see

My love, it can't be sacrificed

I won't return to thee



I'm so sorry

I've already made up my mind

I won't return to be



I'm sorry to say, I'm running away now

Don't worry, you will be alright

I'm running away

I've made up my mind now

You're gonna have to let me go

She's gotta go



I'm sorry for running away like this

And I'm sorry

I've already made my wish

Ah, But Cinderella's got to go (yeah, yeah)

I'm sorry, just trying to live my life

Don't worry you're gonna be alright

But Cinderella's got to go
