Happily Ever After

How come the stories always end
With happily ever after
So we grow up not knowing what comes next
The lovely princess rides toward the sunset
With her charming prince
Well i'll tell you where they went
They rode through disappointment
Waded through the tears
Lost in unknown forests
They battled darkest fears

After happily ever after and all the smiles end
The partying and laughter have quieted
In the face of disasters
They conquer them (we're conquering) together
After happily ever after true love begins

It seems that our story began
With happily ever after
Then suddenly reality set in
'cause this princess who is often selfish
Has a stubborn prince
Will we ever find it again
With firm determination
Hours of compromising
Faith and dedication
We continue climbing

After happily ever after
And though we're far from bliss
We'll embrace our journey
'cause that's what this life is

As we're guided by the master
We're traveling together
After happily ever after true love begins
After happily ever after grows from within
