Swan Princess is one of my favorite movies. haha! Mom said it was the first that I had ever
watched in a moviehouse. Princess Odette may not be one of the fairest Disney
princesses but i really adored her as a kid. Well, with shy confessions, until now. I didn't
think that Prince Derek was handsome, though. I mean, come on,
would you get attracted to a guy with the same haircut as yours? haha.
Far Longer Than Forever
If I could break this spell, I'd run to him today
And somehow I know he's on his way to me
Derek, you and I were meant to be
Far longer than forever
I'll hold you in my heart
It's almost like you're here with me
Although we're far apart
Far longer than forever
As constant as a star
I close my eyes and I am where you are
Sure as the dawn brings the sunrise
We've an unshakable bond
Destined to last for a lifetime and beyond
Far longer than forever (Far longer than forever)
I swear that I'll be true (I swear that I'll be true)
I've made an everlasting vow
To find a way to you
Far longer than forever
Like no love every known
And with your love I'll never be alone
Far longer than forever
Much stronger than forever
And with your love I'll never be alone
Derek: I can't believe I'm stuck with her all summer
I'll bet she doesn't wrestle, hunt or box
Odette: He looks conceited
Derek: What a total bummer
Odette & Derek: If I get lucky I'll get chicken pox
Derek: So happy you could come
Odette: So happy to be here
Odette & Derek: How I'd like to run
Odette: This is not my idea
Derek: This isn't my idea
Odette & Derek: Of fun
Queen Uberta: The children seem to get along quite nicely
King William: We'll join our lands if this arrangement clicks
Queen Uberta: My dear King William, that's my point precisely
King William: It's such good parenting
Queen Uberta: And politics.
So happy we agree
King William: I think we've got a deal
Queen Uberta: Derek's quite a catch
King William: This is my idea
Queen Uberta: This is my idea
King William & Queen Uberta: Of a match
King William: Good heavens, child, don't dawdle
We can't keep Derek waiting
Odette: I haven't packed or washed my hair
And father I get seasick
Queen Uberta: She soon will be arriving
Is that respect you're showing
Derek: To make me kiss her hand again
I swear I'm gonna be sick
King William: One day Prince Derek will be her intended
Queen Uberta Splendid
Derek: We've tried all summer but we just can't lose her
Odette: Hey fellas, wait up!
Bromley: Quick, put on some speed
Derek: When picking teams
Bromley: Or friends
Derek: I never choose her
Bromley: You'd think she'd take a hint a learn to read
Odette: This really isn't fair
Derek & Bromley: We really couldn't care
Odette: Boys, it's all or none
This is not my idea
Derek & Bromley: This isn't my idea
Odette, Derek & Bromley: Of fun
Chorus Long before they met
Derek and Odette
Were destined to be wedded
However anyone could see
The only point on which they didn't disagree
Was that the very thought of summertime
Was dreaded
Derek: She tries to talk me into playing dress-up
She's always flirting with the castle guards
Bromley: I think you really sorta like her, 'fess up
Derek: I'd like her better if she'd lose at
cards
Four sevens and a ten
Odette: I think I've won again
Derek & Bromley: Every time she's won
Odette: This is my idea
Derek: This isn't my idea
Odette & Derek: Of fun
Chorus We need a royal wedding
I'd love to be invited
At least we'd get a holiday to rest our ploughs and axes
Someday these two will marry
Two lands will be united
And with some luck their marriage may result in lower taxes
King William: What if Odette doesn't go for the merger?
Queen Uberta: Urge her!
Odette & Derek: For as long as I remember
We've been told we'd someday wed
Every June until September
Derek: All their pushing and annoying hints
Odette: I've got bruises with their fingerprints
Derek: I can do much better I am sure
Odette: He's so immature
Odette: I see him smiling and my knees start buckling
I see inside him and my doubts are gone
Derek: She started out as such an ugly
duckling
And somehow suddenly became a swan
Odette: So happy to be here
Derek: 'Til now I never knew
Odette & Derek: It is you I've been dreaming of
Derek: This is my idea
Odette: This is my idea
Chorus What a good idea, such a charming and romantic notion This is my idea (This is my idea)
Such a good idea (Such a good idea)
What a good idea, such a powerful and magic potion
This is exactly my idea
Of love
Odette: This is my idea
Derek: This is my idea
Odette & Derek: This is my idea
Of love
