Ever After Lyrics

Walt Disney's Into the Woods Movie (2014)
Into the Woods - Ever After Lyrics

Narrator:
Ever After!

All:
Ever After!

Narrator:
Journey over
All is mended
And it's not just for today
But tomorrow
And extended
Ever after!

All:
Ever after!

Narrator:
All the curses have been ended
The reverses wiped away
All is tenderness and laughter
For forever, after!

All:
Happy now and happy hence and happy ever after!

Narrator:
There were dangers

All:
We were frightened

Narrator:
And confusions

All:
But we hid it

Narrator:
And the paths would often swerve

All:
We did not!

Narrator:
There were constant

All:
It's amazing

Narrator:
Disillusions

All:
That we did it

Narrator:
But they never lost their nerve

All:
Not a lot

Men:
And we reached the right conclusions

Women:
And we got what we deserve

All:
Not a sigh and not a sorrow
Tenderness and laughter!
Joy today and bliss tomorrow and forever after!

Florinda, Lucinda:
I was greedy
I was vain
I was haughty
I was smug
We were happy!
It was fun
But we were blind
Then we we went into the woods to get our wish
And now we're really blind

Witch:
I was perfect
I had everything but beauty
I had power
And a daughter like a flower
In a tower
Then I went into the woods to get my wish
And now I'm ordinary
Lost my power and my flower

Florinda, Lucinda, Witch:
We're (I'm) unhappy now
Unhappy hence
As well as ever after
Had we used our common sense
Been worthy of our discontents

Women:
To be happy
And forever
You must see your wish come true!

All:
Don't be careful
Don't be clever
When you see your wish pursue
It's a dangerous endeavor
But the only thing to do!
Though it's fearful
Though it's deep
Though it's dark and though you may lose the path
Though you may encounter wolves
You musn't stop
You musn't swerve
You musn't ponder!
You have to act!
When you know your wish
If you want your wish
You can have your wish
But you can't just wish
No to get your wish
You go
Into the woods where nothing's clear
Where witches, ghosts and wolves appear
Into the woods and through the fear
You have to take the journey
Into the woods and down the dell
In vain, perhaps, but who can tell?

Men:
Into the woods to lift the spell!

Women:
Into the woods to lose the longing!

Men:
Into the woods to have the child!

Women:
To wed the prince!

Men:
To get the money!

Women:
To save the house!

Men:
To kill the wolf!

Women:
To find the father!

Men:
To conquer the kingdom!

All:
To have
To wed
To get
To save
To kill
To keep
To go to the festival!
Into the woods!
Into the woods!
Into the woods
And out of the woods!

Narrator:
To be continued!

All:
And happy ever after!
