Happy Ever After Afternoon

We meet at three
I have coffee, you have tea
'Cause you're such an anglophile
But I'll take Paris anytime


Chorus
And look at me, I'm smiling
And I'm not even trying
And I don't have to stay
I couldn't really anyway
But while I'm here can we pretend I won't be leaving soon
And have a happy ever afternoon


We talk of many things
Of shoes and strings and engagement rings
But I still don't want to say
Whether I will go your way

Chorus

Yes I know you need an answer soon
But I'm not thinking about that now

I could sit for days
Passing through this phase
You'd say things to make me laugh and stay
I'd never have to leave this café

Chorus
