Sweet Ever After Lyrics by Ellie Holcomb

Canyon

2021

[Intro: Ellie Holcomb]
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1: Bear Rinehart]
In the spirit of David, and the cracks of the walls
And the schemes that we're all running
We're exposed to the rain coming down from the clouds
And the fire that falls from Heaven
But our tragedy binds what our ignorance hides
We all wind up here together
Yeah, our bodies are tied and our souls, they are blind
Bones broken by the weathеr
[Chorus: Ellie Holcomb, Ellie Holcomb & Bear Rinehart]
Got a lot of bad days still comin' our way
But a sweet ever after
Wind and wavеs breaking over our walls
But the ship, it don't shatter
The real life lesson 'bout a life well-lived
Is you lose what don't matter
But the sun's coming up on the stairway to Heaven
In the sweet ever after
In the sweet ever after
[Verse 2: Ellie Holcomb]
Woke up terrified in the middle of the night
To a storm, our whole house was shaking
Didn't know where to hide, the winds howling outside
Sounded like everything was breaking
Well, the tears fell like rain, when the morning light came
In the wake of that disaster
Brick and stone in the street, shattered glass in our feet
Homes splintered by the weather
[Chorus: Ellie Holcomb, Ellie Holcomb & Bear Rinehart, Bear Rinehart]
(Listen) Got a lot of bad days still coming our way
But a sweet ever after (But a sweet ever after)
Wind and waves breaking over our walls
But the ship, it don't shatter (But the ship, it don't shatter)
The real life lesson 'bout a life well-lived
Is you lose what don't matter (Is you lose what don't matter)
But the sun's coming up on the stairway to Heaven
In the sweet ever after
In the sweet ever after
[Bridge]
If we listen
There's a sound
Beneath the footprints
In all our towns
We're connected
Like waves of grain
When we break wide open
We're all the same
When we break open
We're all the same
[Chorus: Ellie Holcomb, Bear Rinehart]
Got a lot of bad days still coming our way
But a sweet ever after
Wind and waves breaking over our walls
But the ship, it don't shatter (But the ship, it don't shatter)
Well, the real life lesson 'bout a life well-lived
Is you lose what don't matter (Is you lose what don't matter)
But the sun's coming up on the stairway to Heaven
In the sweet ever after (In the sweet ever after)
In the sweet ever after (In the sweet ever after)
In the sweet ever after (In the sweet ever after)
In the sweet ever after (In the sweet ever after)
