Happily Never After

Wanted to be like the girls in the movies Swept off my feet by a hero who chooses me Over all the other pretty girls Wanted to ride in a horse and carriage Now I'm convinced true love is dead How sad it's all become Oh I wish things were different I can't get over it This feeling I can't shake off Now I know what dreams are made of And they hurt Oh so bad Fairytales don't always have a happy ending But they don't tell you that. La da da da da They don't tell you that La da da da da How attractive a lie they sell us I fall every time Why do I trust Those stories when They only lead you on You played the prince and spoke all the right words It never ends like this in the blurb Why'd I believe You'd fall for someone like me I can't get over it This feeling I can't shake off Now I know what dreams are made of And they hurt Oh so bad Fairytales don't always have a happy ending But they don't tell you that. La da da da da They don't tell you that La da da da da But now I'm stronger and wiser I know that those story books aren't true Happily Never After was all that I ever got from you
