And Ever After (Simpler Time Remix)

A chill cuts through our coats We’re standing close outside the show The sun goes down behind a highrise While we fumble for our phones The lights go out The spotlight shines We hear a few familiar lines We take another sip, the music swells And carries us away Your hand in mine We’re more than fine Remembering a simpler time We’re high above our problems Though our hair is turning gray We’ll fall apart together slowly to the music And I’ll always sing Along with you until the day we die And ever after The chorus of our favorite song kicks in The sweaty crowd begins to fade And it’s just you and I The room is ours tonight And for a moment I even forget about the kids at home The sitter and the mess we left The pile in the sink Of unwashed plates and bowls and pans The overflowing garbage can I meant to take it out I swear But I ran out of time like everyday And so it’s worth the time away From everything that tries to weigh us down We’re feeling lighter with each lyric that we scream The debt we make The jobs we hate The smiles we fake The risks we take The days are long The list goes on For now those things are gone Your hand in mine We’re more than fine Remembering a simpler time We’re high above our problems Though our hair is turning gray We’ll fall apart together slowly to the music And I’ll always sing Along with you until the day we die And ever after
