don't ask me why, i'm running out of laughter
there's tears in these eyes not happy ever after
and i thought it was plain to see
and i thought the whole world could be
and i thought, we'd be happy ever after
you could say that, i'm living in a pipe dream
it's just looking back, things are never what they seem
and i hope, i can safely say
and i hope, most things go my way
and i hope, they'll be happy ever after
down in southern africa there's happy ever after
that lasts maybe forever
while they're living comfortably
there's peace and unity
can we can we be happy ever after
um by yay

and i thought, that maybe you and me
and i thought, we'd be happy ever after
