Because sometimes, even after the credits roll, Happy Ever Afters are anything but...then what?

Flirtatious glances 

Taking your chances 

From across the room 

All for love 

A new romance

Or second chance

At feeling alive again 

Is all you dream of 

What if it finds you 

After all you've been through

Every sacrifice

White knuckles grasping so tight 

And it starts to slip 

As you lose your grip 

Watching as it 

Falls out of sight?
What do you do then? 

What then?

When it's storybook perfect 

Fell in love with your best friend

Never saw it coming 

Didn't think it would end 

When the weather gets rough 

The going gets tough 

When he calls your bluff 

And love ain't enough

And love ain't enough

As the fairy tale ends 

You're no longer friends 

All alone in the bedroom 

As the darkness descends 

And love ain't enough 

No, love ain't enough

That new romance 

Or second chance 

At feeling alive again 

Is still all you dream of 

So you fell in love 
(yeah) 

With your best friend

Never saw it coming 

Didn't think it would end 

When the weather gets rough 

The going gets tough 

When he calls your bluff 

And love ain't enough

And love ain't enough
(no no no
 oh)
As the fairy tale ends 

You're no longer friends

All alone in the bedroom

As the heartbreak begins


And love ain't enough

No, love ain't enough

Is it ever enough?

When it's storybook perfect 

When the weather gets rough 

When the fairy tale ends 

In love with your best friend 

What then? 
What then? 

When love ain't enough

When love ain't enough 

As the fairy tale ends

You're no longer friends

All alone in the bedroom 

As the heartbreak begins 

When the weather gets rough

The going gets tough 

When he calls your bluff 

And love ain't enough 


When love ain't enough
Is it ever enough?
