History

Before First Curse

After Snow White makes a wish on a star to have the power she needs to protect her daughter, her wish is granted with a singing spell cast on the entire kingdom. Believing their song is powerful enough to defeat the Evil Queen thanks to the love they share, Snow White and Prince Charming make a deal with Captain Killian Jones to take them to the Evil Queen's palace where they begin a battle with the Evil Queen, singing their song and chasing her with a sword. The Evil Queen fires back, using her witchcraft and the song inside of her heart. Although Snow and Charming's song is more powerful, the Evil Queen leads them to a music box she found in her vault, actually left for her by Zelena, and extracts the song from the entire kingdom, leaving Snow and Charming powerless to stop her curse. ("The Song in Your Heart")

Lyrics

Snow White & Prince Charming

There's a powerful magic

When two hearts are one

A powerful magic

Bright as the sun

Goodness will triumph, and evil's undone

When you dare to heed love's call

Cause love is the most powerful magic of all

Evil Queen

Down with love, down with hope

Don't need blind faith to cope

Or inspiring songs in my heart

Got the magic I need

For my darkest of deeds

Love at times can entrance

But love doesn't stand a chance

No, no, love doesn't stand a chance

Snow White & Prince Charming

It's a powerful magic

When two voices soar

We're ever more hopeful

For what lies in store

Evil Queen

Once I loved and once I learned

Love is weakness

Love will leave you burned

Snow White & Prince Charming Nothing will stop us, no not anymore With our daughter's fate at stake Seems like we found a lucky break Now let our song show the powerful magic We can make

Evil Queen Happy endings you will see Your happy end will end with me Love doesn't stand a chance

Evil Queen

Got you where I want you now

Your spell will soon be broken

Let us see how strong you are

When everything is spoken
