Fairy Tales - The Mills Brothers

Fairy tales were the tales that you told me

Fairy tales made me happy as I could be

For I had been dreaming of some day

But now somehow it’s all faded away

Fairy tales, like a child I believed you

Fairy tales, none of them came true

But sometimes in my dreams, I can hear you, it seems

Telling me the same old fairy tales

Oh, fairy tales were the tales that you told me

Fairy tales made me happy as I could be

For I had been dreaming of some day

But now somehow it’s all faded away

Fairy tales, like a child I believed you

Fairy tales, none of them came true

But sometimes in my dreams, I can hear you, it seems

Telling me the same old fairy tales

Fairy tales, like a child I believed you

Fairy tales, none of them came true

But sometimes in my dreams, I can hear you, it seems

Telling me

(Why must you keep on telling me)

The same old fairy tales
