Lyrics
(It Never Happens) In Real Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It never happens
It never happens
In real life
In the storybook
The hero, young and brave
Fights to win his girl
And vows to be her slave
But it never happens
Never happens
Never happens in real life
Cinderella lost her slipper
At the King's ball
But she found a prince
So handsome, so tall
Billy and Mary
Go steady now
I saw Johnny take Mary to the prom
Yes, I did
Maybe I'm silly
But I know somehow
Someday, my queen will come along
Hurry to my heart
And give your love to me
Change my lonely life
And I will believe
It never happens
Never happens
It ever happens in real life
It never happens in real life
It never, it never happens in real life
No, no, no, no
