Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't be what you expect of me
But I'm trying every day with all I do
And do not say
Here on the edge of the abyss
Knowing everything in my whole life has lead to this
And so I pull inside myself
Close the walls, put up my guard
I've practiced every single day for this
So why is it so hard?
[Verse 2]
'Cause I can't show you
I'm not as cold as I seem
There are things you cannot know
And it's dangerous to dream
[Verse 3]
Sorry I'm late
[Verse 4]
I know I'll never see that sunny day
When this trial is finally through
And it could just be me and you
I can't dwell on what we've lost
And how secrecy and silence comes at such a cost
[Verse 5]
I wish I could tell the truth
Show you who's behind the door
I wish you knew what all this
Pantomime and pageantry was for
[Verse 6]
I have to be so cautious
And you're so extreme
We're different, you and I
And it's dangerous to dream
[Verse 7]
It's dangerous to wish
I could make choices of my own
Dangerous to even have that thought
I am dangerous just standing here
For everyone to see
If I let go of rules
Who knows how dangerous I'd be
[Verse 8]
Your Majesty, the gloves
[Verse 9]
Why right now would I make this mistake?
How could I let my concentration break?
Conceal, don't feel
Conceal, don't feel
Conceal, don't feel
[Verse 10]
Queen Elsa of Arendelle
(Queen anointed, our chosen daughter)
(Our blessed queen behold)
[Verse 11]
I can't believe I'm standing here
Did I really make it through?
Father, I did it
Now, what do I do?
[Verse 12]
I can't stop smiling, how strange
Does this mean that things are different?
Could they really change?
[Verse 13]
And could I open up the door
And finally see you face to face?
I guess the queen can change the rules
But not the reasons they're in place
[Verse 14]
I can't be what you expect of me
And I'm not what I seem
But I would love to know you
Is it dangerous to dream?
