Sleeping Beauty

You could build me a cloud out of promises

And I’d sleep on it gladly

A million miles above the Earth

You’d say you’d come back as soon as you could

To visit me up there

But chances are, you never would

So I’d stay sleeping nearly forever

A real beauty lost to the world

From a curse brought to us long ago

Eventually I’d wake up

Like I always do, a different person

with the same name.
