I’ll never be anyone’s princess;
I’ll never be some damsel in distress.
You won’t see me growing out my hair
Just to see if someone actually notices or cares.

I’m nobody’s angel—not a “babe” or a “hun.”
I’m just a small town girl looking for some fun.
Maybe you’re looking for a materialistic girl
But I know she’ll never truly rock your world.

I’m not looking for a knight to slay the dragon
You don’t need a white horse or a pumpkin-shaped wagon.
Just give me your heart and I won’t ask for more
Lets make this simple. We’ve all been hurt before.

You don’t need to be a graceful dancer
Or some high-class steeplechaser—to win my heart.
Just reach out your hand and I’ll gladly offer mine
And perhaps our simple touch can somehow rewind time.

Perhaps then our tears will be forgotten and lost
Just remember how we fought for love and its cost.
The pain on your heart will now only be small scars
Because we’re warriors of the night with a noble cause.

Our battlefield now is the sheets on the bed
We’ll make love throughout the night over and over again.
No one can stop us now that we’ve found love
It is ours to protect—a gift from the heavens above.

I’ll never be a princess, not a damsel, nor dame
I’m a fighter by your side until the very end.
I’ll guard your heart if you promise to guard mine
As long as we have each other—we’ll do just fine.

You don’t have to be a knight in the armor that shines
You don’t have to be rich—hell we can pay in quarters and dimes.
I’m not looking for perfection—just a love called true
Baby, all I’m searching for, I’ve found somewhere in you.
