We had a storybook beginning
getting better with each page
somewhere in the middle
i somehow lost my place
then came the final chapter where
you said we were through
and left me living
sadly ever after loving you
oh sadly ever after
since you said goodbye
with just one little word
you wrote me right out of your life
you found a new prince charming
now i'm a royal shade of blue
alone and living
sadly ever after loving you
[ fiddle ]
Now the story that i'm writing
is a sad sad tale to tell
'bout a man who loved someone
who loved somebody else
but i wish that it was fiction
but heaven knows it's true
and the ending leaves me
sadly ever after loving you
oh sadly ever after...
oh you found a new prince charming
now i'm a royal shade of blue
alone and living
sadly ever after loving you
