Joe Jackson - Ever After lyrics

Now that you're gone

Nothing is wrong

But everything's changed

Words in your hand

Do I set them in stone

Or throw them away

Now everything we did

Like photographs that always moved

(And that wasn't strange)

Now they're in the can

Let's put them on a shelf

Let's put them in the ground

They'll never move again

Ever after, ever after ...

Over and done

All of the fun

And all of the pain

Why don't I laugh

Why don't I cry

It ends up the same

Now that you're gone

everything's wrong

Though nothing has changed

And everything we said

Is there on a tape

For the future to play

Let's put it in the ground

That's where it ought to stay

Ever after, ever after ...

And it'll be all right...
