Happy Endings All Around

The end of every fairy tale
Has wedding bells and snowy veils,
And happiness and smiles can be found.
And so, as dreams can sure come true,
May I propose this toast to you?
May there be happy endings all around!

Before the final curtains close,
As almost everybody knows,
Conflicts will end in ways that can astound.
And all the characters draw near,
Just as we all have gathered here,
To wish for happy endings all around!

	Life goes on. (and on, and on...)
	A brand-new dawn. (and on, and on...)
	But here we are at last
	Forget the shadows we have cast
	And put the sadness somewhere in the past!

May each and every story end
With all in grins and all as friends
All voices singing out in happy sounds.
May there be happy endings....
All happiness descending....
May there be happy endings all around!
