More to the Story Songtext

von Sutton Foster

This is by the book
A picture perfect bride
I got my happy ending
In a fairy tale the not must get tied
This is what I dreamed
Finally it's real
I knew what I would look like
But I never thought how I might feel

And there's more more more to the story
What you so often read
Isn't always so
There's more more to the story
Now I know

Every princess is a beauty
Every dragon must be cruel
Big goes with bad
And royal goes with duty
We play our parts
We follow every rule

This is by the book
I knew it from the start
The ogre tries to hurt you
But I never knew they meant in the heart
And there's more more more to the story
What you so clearly see
Isn't' always so
There's more more to the story
Now I know, now I know

What you so fondly told
Isn't always so
There's more more to the story

Now I know this is by the book
I got my happy ending
