Happy Endings Songtext
von Ashford & Simpson

To write a book, I know
You must imagine
Things that aren′t so

I played with the idea
Your half didn't go
I rewrote the script
Why let the world know

I couldn′t write a sad tragedy
I hope you don't mind too much
It just wasn't in me, you see

I like happy endings
Never, no tears, ooh, ooh, baby
I like new beginnings
Hopes and no fears

To write a book it seems
You must know how
To paint a dream


Like high on a hill
Or once upon a time
Somehow the truth
Don′t always rhyme

So call it fiction, fantasy or fact
My only prediction was
You′d be back, you see

I like happy endings
Never, no tears, ohh, ohh, baby
I like new beginnings
Hopes and no fears
I gotta change every line

I like happy endings
Never, no tears
I don't believe in, baby
I don′t believe in it
I like new beginnings
Hopes and no fears, ooh

I remember bedtime stories
Often told to me
Dragonflies, giant butterflies


Through the night would creep
I just couldn't get to sleep
They always made me cry
Maybe that′s the reason why

I like happy endings
Never, no tears, ohh, baby
Hope you don't mind
But I changed every line

I like new beginnings
Hopes and no fears, no fears
I don′t believe in 'em

I like happy endings
Never, no tears
'Cause I remember
How it used to be
Just you and me

I like new beginnings
Hopes and no fears, no fears, no
I had tell it, tell it alright
I like happy endings
Never, no tears, no, no

The suns going to shine another day
I like new beginnings
