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
