HAPPILY EVER ALRIGHT lyrics

[Verse 1]
I think your face on that Thursday
Will stay forever in my mind
The tender care that once dwelled there
Was scared to crawl into the light

And I know I’m the one at fault
Just another soul I’ve claimed
The origin of a villain who just wanted to be saved

[Chorus]
Now I don’t need to mount a white horse
Don’t need the sunset ride
My feet are fine here on the floor
The witch can’t be the bride
Don’t need forever legacies
After’s a long, long time
'Cause I got to see you again
That’s happily ever alright

[Verse 2]
We locked eyes by the riverside
Straw papers were exchanged
Hearts speaking a lost language
That now looks strange upon the page
But even so, we cast its spell
And followed where it lead
But wyverns waited wild with want
They burned us and we fled

[Chorus]
Now I don’t need to mount the white horse
Don’t need the sunset ride
My feet are fine here on the floor
The witch can’t be the bride
Don’t need forever legacies
After’s a long, long time
'Cause I got to see you again
That’s happily ever...

[Bridge]
I have been the damsel
Been the warrior, been the muse
Had songs sung in my name
But each fairytale has left its bruise

Though every time I’ve fantasized
My heart has fallen flat
But I didn’t watch you leave this time
How magical is that?
[Chorus]
So I don’t need to mount the white horse
Don’t need the sunset ride
My feet are fine here on the floor
The witch can’t be the bride
Don’t need forever legacies
After’s a long, long time
'Cause I got to see you again
That’s happily ever...
Not happy by, like, any measure
Happily ever...

[Outro]
I’m fine to watch the white horse
As the hero gallops by
I’m not a dancer anyway
The witch with lonely eyes

Don’t need forever legacies
After’s a long, long time
But I got to see you again
That’s happily ever... alright
