Kevin Welch - Happy Ever After lyrics

[Verse 1] Well I'm so glad last night is over I thought it would never end When I stormed out the front door I'm sure glad you let me back in [Verse 2] And I sat up all night thinkin' And I feel like I understand We got to take ahold of this dream Before it slips right through our hands [Chorus] So wake up baby I know it's raining But still we've got to rise and shine Because happy ever after Comes one day at a time [Verse 3] It takes faith, not expectations And a little hard work sometimes For every mile we're coasting There's a mile up ahead to climb [Verse 4] And we've heard 'bout the storybook endings Where everybody's dreams come true There ain't no reason in the world girl It can't happen to me and you [Chorus] So wake up baby I know it's raining But still we've got to rise and shine 'Cause happy ever after Comes one day at a time [Chorus] So wake up baby I know it's raining But still we've got to rise and shine Because happy ever after Comes one day at a time [Chorus] Wake up baby I know it's raining But still we've got to rise and shine Because happy ever after Comes one day at a time [Tag] Said happy ever after Comes one day at a time
