confetti on the floor
of the highschool gym
boy meets girl
and girl meets him
takes her hand
and they dance together
she says, "this is our song"
and it's theirs forever
this world seems cruel
at your first glance
look again, it's like a dance
once you've had
a good long gaze
it seems we all star
in our very own plays
this old world is
a merry-go-round
with painted horses
going up and down
oceans of tears, gales of laughter
once in a while someone lives
happily ever after...
-happily ever after,
the spin doctors
