[Verse 1]
Cinderella, stay awhile
You are the one
That I have been looking for
Cinderella, when you smile
All around me sunbeams
Start to fall
Midnight is so near
Please do not disappear
Now that you are here
Stay awhile
[Verse 2]
Cinderella, I just know
That the magic slipper's
Going to fit
Cinderella, do not go
You are my princess
I am sure of it
This is love for sure
Love that is sweet and pure
Love that will endure
Stay awhile
[Bridge]
When you speak the angels all sing
This is the kind of magic you bring, oh
[Verse 3]
Cinderella, stay awhile
This is like a fairytale with you
Cinderella, when you smile
All my fairy tales are coming true
Well my only fear
Is midnight is so near
Please do not disappear
Stay awhile, oh
[Outro]
(Fairytales, make-believe and you)
(Fairytales, make-believe and you)
Cinderella, stay awhile
Do not you go
Oh
Cinderella, stay awhile
You are the one
That I have been looking for
Cinderella, when you smile
All around me sunbeams
Start to fall
Midnight is so near
Please do not disappear
Now that you are here
Stay awhile
[Verse 2]
Cinderella, I just know
That the magic slipper's
Going to fit
Cinderella, do not go
You are my princess
I am sure of it
This is love for sure
Love that is sweet and pure
Love that will endure
Stay awhile
[Bridge]
When you speak the angels all sing
This is the kind of magic you bring, oh
[Verse 3]
Cinderella, stay awhile
This is like a fairytale with you
Cinderella, when you smile
All my fairy tales are coming true
Well my only fear
Is midnight is so near
Please do not disappear
Stay awhile, oh

Do not you go
Oh
