"Happily Ever After"
Dedicated to Dan & Emily Schlesinger -- December 26, 1998
Lyrics and Music by: Bass P

Chorus:
Together till death do you part
Forever you start your lives anew as one beating heart
Remember smiles through the trials, each chapter filled with laughter
Livin' life to the fullest happily ever after

Verse 1:
As the wedding bell tolls on this bright winter day
Giod's children come together and forever we pray
That God blesses this marriage as two become one
May your life be filled with joy with each rising sun
So much fun, hand in hand, completely unified
What God has brought together could never ever divide
What a beautiful bride shining like the North Star
And if this was golf, you'd be a twelve under par
Far above all the rest and Dan could attest
That you're the best girl in this world, you've truly been blessed
Your chest pounds as you look into one another's eyes
Standing before God creating mutual ties
You may cry as the emotions overwhelm and bloom
Tears of joy from the bride, tears of pride from the groom
The room becomes witness to this miraculous event
The vows have been taken and the bond is heaven sent
Many years you have spent and there will be many more
Dan and Emily have joined at the center, the core
Explore your new world and happiness you will find
This is the tie that will forever bind

Chorus

Verse 2:
Bass P in the place, makin' the whole place jump
With the beats I bump, I make the club get crunk
Like a Jordan dunk, y'all two be flyin' so high
And I suggest y'all never come down from them clouds in the sky
Fly ... like a bird, Word, remember to "play"
Be aware of temptations that try to lead you astray
And stay away, hold each other tight, and never let go
And you'll continue to grow like the crowd at a Bass P show
I said flow like the streams, no matter how hard it seems
When times get rough and tough, just remember your dreams
And you'll be bright like a child with a brand new toy
You could smile for a mile like your name's Jon McCoy
It's a boy, It's a girl, what will the future hold?
Let it be told, let the script unfold
Growin' old?  Maybe in age, but never in spirit
Tellin' the world about these two, loud, so people will hear it
Fear it?  Nah, never, cuz married life's all good
I kicked my rhymes to speak my thoughts and I hope you understood
Could they beat the long distance? Proud to say I'm a witness
To true love from above brought together this Christmas

Chorus
