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
