Running to the beast


She left her heart in his hotel room She went there as one and came back in two "Should I do sandals? Should I do shoes?" "Oh mama tell me how do I look?" The dress is tight but she doesn't mind All that matters is the candy lights She dances slowly before the mirror Repeats her steps to make sure they're a little cleaner She paints her lips redder than a diva's Turns down all her friends just to go be with Ethan And in her high heels she's running down the streets Looking just like beauty running from the beast Then she finds her sweetheart kissing another queen Now it's more like beauty has been running to the beast
