Happy Ending - Sugarland

Cowboys ride into sunsets

The good guy always gets the girl

Cinderella has just fit

A glass slipper that changed her world

We all know the stories

We all know the fairy tales

We all get the glory of making it for ourselves

From the beginning

We’re all looking for a happy ending

Every dream of winning

Every love we’ve been in

Right from the beginning

We’re looking for a happy ending

We’ve come here with nothing

And take it with us the day we leave

The first and last breath don’t matter

It’s all the ones that are in-between

It’s the reason for living

It’s the reason the caged bird sings

It’s why we sit in the movies

All the way to the closing scenes

And all those dreamers who have come and gone

Who’ve reached for the stars, who’ve overcome

You’re the hope, you’re the wish, you’re the truth

Baby, here’s the proof

Baby’s born in this ghetto

Baby’s born with a silver spoon

One tells his mama i have a dream

One tells his mama i’ll walk the moon
