Happily Never After..

I don't think I want this anymore
As she drops the ring to the floor
She says to herself: 'You've left before'
This time you will stay gone, that's for sure

And he shouted something else
She dragged her suitcase down the path,
To the driveway.
She had never gone that far.

Normally this would be the time
That she would let him talk her out of leaving,
But this time, without crying,
As she got into her car, she said,

No, happily never after
That just ain't for me, because finally
I know I deserve better after all,
I'll never let another teardrop fall.

As she drove away she starts to smile,
Realized she hadn't for a while.
No destination, she drove for miles
Wondering why she stayed in such denial.

Laughing about the way he shattered something else
To drag her suitcase down the path,
To the driveway.
She had never gone that far

Normally this would be, the time that she
Would let him talk her out of leaving,
But this time, without crying,
As she got into her car, she said,

No, happily never after
That just ain't for me, because finally
I know I deserve better after all,
I'll never let another tear drop fall.

She inhales an air she'd never breathed before
Cure of no drama no more.

She said
No, happily never after
That just ain't for me, because finally
I know I deserve better after all,
I'll never let another teardrop fall.

Another teardrop fall...
