Sweet Ever After Songtext
von Ellie Holcomb

Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

In the spirit of David, in the cracks of the walls
In the schemes that we′re all running
We're exposed to the rain coming down from the clouds
And the fire that falls from Heaven

But our tragedy binds while ignorance hides
We all wind up here together
Yeah, our bodies are tied and our souls, they are blind
Bones broken by the weather

Got a lot of bad days still coming our way
But it′s sweet ever after
Wind and waves breaking over our walls
But the ship, it don't shatter


There'll be a lot of blessing by a life well-lived
As you lose what don′t matter
But the sun′s coming up on the stairway to Heaven
And it's sweet ever after
And it′s sweet ever after

Woke up terrified in the middle of the night
It was storm, our whole house was shaking
Didn't know where to hide, the winds howling outside
Sounded like everything was breaking

Well, our tears fell like rain, and the morning light came
In the wake of that disaster
Breaking stone in the street, shattered glass in our feet
Home splintered by the weather

(Listen) got a lot of bad days still coming our way
But it′s sweet ever after (but it's sweet ever after)
Wind and waves breaking over our walls
But the ship (but the ship) it don′t shatter (it don't shatter)

There'll be a lot of blessing by a life well-lived
As you lose what don′t matter (as you lose what don′t matter)
But the sun's coming up on the stairway to Heaven
And it′s sweet ever after
And it's sweet ever after


If we ascend, as they sound
Beneath the footprints
In all our towns
We′re connected
Like waves of grain
When we break wide open
We're all the same
When we break open
We′re all the same

Got a lot of bad days still coming our way
But it's sweet ever after
Wind and waves breaking over our walls
But the ship (but the ship) it don't shatter (it don′t shatter)

There′ll be a lot of blessing by a life well-lived
As you lose what don't matter (as you lose what don′t matter)
But the sun's coming up on the stairway to Heaven
And it′s sweet ever after (and it's sweet ever after)
And it′s sweet ever after (and it's sweet ever after)

And it's sweet ever after (and it′s sweet ever after)
And it′s sweet ever after (and it's sweet ever after)
