Rapunzel

Rapunzel

rapunzel, rapunzel, come let down your hair
for if I cannot see you, I’ll surely despair
you sit in your tower, your voice sweet as sin
at night I am haunted by songs that you sing

rapunzel, rapunzel, you don’t need to fear
I’ve come here to save you, your rescue is near
I’l take you away and you will be my wife
forever and ever we will share our life

rapunzel, rapunzel, at last there you are
you’re sweeter than moonlight, as bright as a star
but why aren’t you smiling, why don’t you look glad
my dear, I must tell you, you do seem quite mad

rapunzel, rapunzel, sits silent and smiles
her beauty shines brightly but so do her wiles
the witch long since buried, the secret stairs found
down in the basement a new prince lies bound
