Into The Woods - Ever After lyrics

And it came to pa**, all that seemed wrong Was now right and those who deserved to Were certain to live a long and happy life Ever after, ever after Journey over, all is mended And it's not just for today But tomorrow and extended Ever after, ever after All the curses have been ended The reverses wiped away All is tenderness and laughter For forever after Happy now and happy hence And happy ever after There were dangers We were frightened And confusions But we hid it And the paths would often swerve We did not There were constant It's amazing Disillusions That we did it But they never lost they're nerve Not a lot And we reached the right conclusions And we got what we deserved Not a sigh and not a sorrow Tenderness and laughter Joy today and bliss tomorrow And forever after I was greedy I was vain I was haughty I was smug, we were happy It was fun But we were blind Then we went into the woods To get our wish and now we're really blind I was perfect I had everything but beauty I had power And a daughter like a flower in a tower Then I went into the woods To get my wish And now I'm ordinary We're unworthy Lost my power and my flower We're unhappy now, unhappy hence As well as ever after Had we used our common sense Been worthy of our discontents We'd be happy To be happy and forever You must see your wish come true Don't be careful, don't be clever When you see your wish, pursue It's a dangerous endeavor But the only thing to do Though it's fearful Though it's deep, though it's dark And though you may lose your path Though you may encounter wolves You mustn't stop, you mustn't swerve You mustn't ponder, you have to act When you know your wish If you want your wish You can have your wish But you can't just wish No, to get your wish You go into the woods where nothing's clear Where witches, ghosts and wolves appear Into the woods and through the fear You have to take the journey Into the woods and down the dell In vain, perhaps, but who can tell? Into the woods to lift the spell Into the woods to lose the longing Into the woods to have the child To wed the Prince, to get the money To save the house, to k** the Wolf To find the father, to conquer the kingdom To have, to wed, to get, to save To k**, to keep, to go to the festival Into the woods, into the woods Into the woods, then out of the woods to be continued.. And happy ever after
