Jersey girl in a (Ah) music town
Dreams of singing to sold out crowds
But she's working the late shift
Needing every tip til she makes it big
Just her and baby girl taking on the world
Holding on a (Ah) little tighter when the thunder rolls
And the rain keeps pouring as she keeps looking for
That Happily Ever After
The warmth in the laughter
That drives away the cold
That blows against her soul
Will every wish she ever whispered
On those stars last December
Be worth all the tears and the worry
Until she finds her Cinderella story
Right place and just the right lyric(s)
Right person happened to hear it
Now she's the toast of the city
Glitz and Glamor. Looking so pretty
But all the shines ain't what it seems
And her big break broke her dream(s)
And those stage lights can blind you (Ya) to who you are
One more reminder to keep on looking for
That Happily Ever After
The warmth in the laughter
That drives away the cold
That blows against her soul
Will every wish she ever whispered
On those stars last December
Be worth all the tears and the worry
Until she finds her Cinderella story
And with a prayer and kiss
She found the peace that she'd been missing
In the eyes of her most beautiful blessing
And in her arms is all she's been looking for
As every care walks right out the door
And all the crazy slowly fades away
As a (Ah) Lullaby and cradle/takes her to the place of...
Her Happily Ever After
The warmth in the laughter
That drives away the cold
That blows against her soul
And every wish she ever whispered
On those stars last December
Was worth all the tears and the worry
Now that she's found her Cinderella story
