Happily Ever After

Confetti on the floor of the high school gym

boy meets girl and girl meets him

he takes her hand and they dance together

she says, "This is our song,"

and it's theirs forever

This old world is a merry-go-round

with painted horses going up and down

oceans of tears gales of laughter

once in a while someone lives

happily ever after

This world seems cruel at your first glance

look again it's like a dance

once you've had a good long gaze

It seems we all starr in our very own plays

This old is a merry-to-round

with painted horses going up and down

oceans of tears gales of laughter

once in a while someone lives

happily ever after

We grow out of the days like moth-eaten sweater

Half of the time things change for the better

Wait for a call, look for a letter

It ain't over 'till the fat lady sings

yeah...

Finishing's harder than beginning

being good's not as fun as sinning

being right's not as good as winning

It's best to be the one that ends up grinning

This old world is a merry-go-round

with painted horses going up and down

oceans of tears gales of laughter

once in a while someone lives

happily ever after

yeah, yeah

This old world is a merry-go-round

with painted horses going up and down

oceans of tears gales of laughter

once in a while someone lives

happily ever after
