I learned the truth today, oh yeah

Nothing's what it seems

She brke the news to me, oh yeah

And told me he's leaving

I heard she made the most lovely bride

With flowers in her hair

Some how those flowers died

All alone in the world



Happy ever after girl

And now i see her in a store, behind the counter glass

The ladies that she knew before, look down as they pass

It doesn't matter they once were friends,

You have or you have not and then the story ends





All alone in the world

Happy ever after girl



Trades in her diamonds for pearls

Happy ever after girl

I dream about her every night since that day

Falling from a tree

She hits the ground and brushing the dirt from her face

Laughs about the irony (waits for an apology)



We watch her kids play in the park

Then she says to me

I only cry now when it's dark,

So they won't have to see

I'm tired and worn out before my time

Cant recognize myself.

A couple of bottles and i'll be fine

Like everybody else i know





All alone in the world

Happy ever after girl

Trades in her diamonds for pearls

Happy ever after girl
