(Intro: A soft, dreamy piano melody with a slight echo)

​(Verse 1)

I'm so lost in you, I've got nothing to prove

I'll do all the work, and still, it's not enough

Just a whisper, a promise, a glance from you

And I think that's what love is, I think that's enough

I cook and I clean, still have to make you happy, it's my turn,

Another day gone, with nothing in return.

​(Pre-Chorus)

But the sun came out on a Monday morning

And I was just running, a little daydreaming.

You didn't notice, but I did.

And I saw him.

He smiled at me, a real one, a human being.

​(Chorus)

You treat me like I'm your Cinderella

Yeah, I'm a wreck, always living in fear

But let me tell you something, fella!

It's your turn to cry, to shed those tears

'Cause I ain't your Cinderella-ella-ella

Yeah, it's a downpour of your broken heart

So I'll open up my umbrella-ella-ella

'Cause it's time for me to cut you loose, time for a new start.

​(Verse 2)

And he opened a door for me, didn't say a word

He looked at me with his eyes and I felt heard.

And he asked me out to dinner, just a simple request.

I didn't need to do any work to prove I was the best.

So I put on my shoes and for the first time in a while

I felt a real happiness, a genuine smile.

​(Pre-Chorus)

And now I'm here, I'm walking right out the door

You're shouting, asking, "what for?"

You're so shocked, and I get it.

You really don't get it.

You thought you had a doll, a rag, a thing you own.

​(Chorus)

You treat me like I'm your Cinderella

Yeah, I'm a wreck, always living in fear

But let me tell you something, fella!

It's your turn to cry, to shed those tears

'Cause I ain't your Cinderella-ella-ella

Yeah, it's a downpour of your broken heart

So I'll open up my umbrella-ella-ella

'Cause it's time for me to cut you loose, time for a new start.

(Funky trumpet solo)

​(Outro)

(Music gets more upbeat, with a confident, strong beat that replaces the sad intro)

No Cinderella

No fear

Just me and my umbrella

Under your raining tears
