"Secret Kingdom" is a passionate love song from the 1976 film, The Slipper and the Rose. It was written by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. It was sung by the Prince (Richard Chamberlain) and Cinderella (Gemma Craven) just after they've met, but before she must run away (at the stroke of midnight).

A reprise of this song is also sung at the end of the very end of the movie as the Prince and Cinderella ascend the castle steps together.

[edit] Trivia

This song/sequence was homaged heavily in Andrew Lloyd Webber's version of Phantom of the Opera. In "Phantom", "All I Ask Of You" is visually, thematically and nearly shot for shot, identical to the "Secret Kingdom" sequence in The Slipper and the Rose, a likely homage to director, Bryan Forbes' work.
