Happy Endings
(Jewel Kilcher)

The room is full
And we're dancing slow
The band is playing
An old country tune
And cowboys will be bringing
Their ladies home soon
And I don't wanna hear
No more sad songs
Don't know no happy ones no more
The world's full of broken hearts
And I'm not pretending
But is it asking too much
For just one happy ending?
Tonight I need a happy ending

Outside the night is still
And the moon's hanging low
And tomorrow can conquer
With its tyranny and noise
But tonight I'm taking a stand

Cause I don't wanna hear
No more sad songs
Don't know no happy ones no more
The world's full of broken hearts
And, hey, I'm not pretending
But is it asking too much
For just one happy ending?
Tonight I need a happy ending

So hold me tight
Hold me dear
Whisper quietly
So my heart can't hear
No more sad songs
No more sad songs
So hold me tight
And pray this song never ends
Don't make me lonely
And don't make me blue
Don't say goodbye
Just say you want a
Happy ending.

Cause I don't wanna hear
No more sad songs
Don't know no happy ones no more
The world's full of broken hearts
And I'm not pretending
Is it asking too much
For just one happy ending?
Tonight I need just one happy ending...
Tonight I need a happy ending.
