Lyrics
The plot is just the same in every fantasy
The lovers meet and fall in love
And then live happily
But now the story’s changed
For something’s gone awry
Now, my forever after has passed me by
Refrain:
This is the end of the story
That started so well
This is the scene where the lovers
Have nothing more to tell
No happy ending here, as you supposed
So, dry your tears, my friend
For now the book is closed
And this is the end of the story
So, farewell my love
