HAPPILY EVER AFTER SCRIPT AND LYRICS
Narrator:
And they all lived happily ever after. Each of us has a dream, a heart’s desire. It calls to us. And when we’re brave enough to listen and bold enough to pursue, that dream will lead us on a journey to discover who we’re meant to be. All we have to do is look inside our hearts and unlock the magic within.
Lyrics: Happily Ever After Original Score
Ready to begin?
Let the wonder take hold.
Feel it draw you in.
Watch the moment unfold.
Spark a dream that we’re meant to follow,
Setting out for a new tomorrow.
Every step we take
Brings a new hope, a new day.
Every choice we make
Helps us find our own way.
Every wish finally put into motion,
Diving in with our hearts wide open.
The story comes alive
When we look inside
A new adventure there in your eyes.
There in your eyes
It’s just beginning.
Feel your heart beat faster.
Reach out and find your
Happily ever after!
Find your happily ever after
Lyrics: The Princess and the Frog (Down in New Orleans Prologue)
The evening star is shining bright,
So make a wish and hold on tight.
There’s magic in the air tonight,
And anything can happen.
Music: When You Wish Upon a Star, Part of Your World
Lyrics: The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Out There
Out there, strolling by the Seine.
Taste a morning out there, like ordinary men
Who freely walk about there,
Just one day, and then I swear
I’ll be content with my share.
Won’t resent, won’t despair.
Old and bent, I won’t care.
I’ll have spent one day out there!
Lyrics: Brave, Touch the Sky
Your destiny lies within you. You just have to be brave enough to see it. And then your journey begins!
I will read every story,
Take hold of my own dream.
Be as strong as the seas are stormy,
And proud as an eagle’s scream.
I will ride, I will fly,
Chase the wind and touch the sky!
I will fly.
Chase the wind and touch the sky.
Na na na na,
Na na na na,
La na na na,
Na na na
Chase the wind and touch the sky!
Lyrics: Moana, How Far I’ll Go
Every turn I take, every trail I track,
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I can not go, where I long to be.
See the light as it shines on the sea? It’s blinding.
But no one knows how deep it goes.
And it seems like it’s calling out to me, so come find me!
And let me know, what’s beyond that line, will I cross that line?
The line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me.
And no one knows, how far it goes.
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me,
One day I’ll know, how far I’ll go!
Lyrics: Aladdin, How Far I’ll Go
Trust me, having a best friend by your side opens up a whole new world of possibilities!
Oh, whoa…
Oh, my…
Oh, yeah…
Lyrics: Tarzan, Trashing the Camp
Zabwe dap, zooboo doop, zabwe dap, zooboo doo dap ‘n dee yap.
Zabwe dap, zooboo doop, zabwe dap, zooboo doo ‘n dee dee yoop.
Zabwe dap, zooboo doop, zabwe dap, buh kah, buh kah, buh kah, buh kah!
Dwee yap, dwee yoo.
Music: Hakuna Matata, You’ve Got a Friend Like Me, The Bare Necessities
Lyrics: The Jungle Book, That’s What Friends Are For (The Vulture Song)
And when you’re outside, looking in,
Who’s there to open the door?
That’s what friends are for!
Lyrics: Aladdin, Friend Like Me
Mister Aladdin, sir,
Have a wish or two or three.
I’m on the job, you big nabob,
You ain’t never had a friend,
Never had a friend.
You ain’t never had a friend,
Never had a friend.
You ain’t never had a
Friend like me!
Ya ha ha, ha ha ha,
You ain’t never had a friend like me!
Lyrics: Frozen, Love is an Open Door
Some people are worth melting for.
Say goodbye
Say goodbye
To the pain of the past
We don’t have to feel it anymore
Love is an open door
Love is an open door
Love is an open door
Lyrics: Tarzan, You’ll Be in My Heart
You’ll be in my heart,
No matter what they say.
You’ll be here in my heart,
Always.
Lyrics: Tangled, I See the Light
And at last I see the light,
And it’s like the fog has lifted.
And at last I see the light,
And it’s like the sky is new.
And it’s warm and real and bright,
And the world has somehow shifted.
All at once, everything is different,
Now that I see you.
Lyrics: Mulan, Mulan Theme
The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.
Music: Fantasia, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Stampede, He’s a Pirate

Voice: The Lion King
Look inside yourself. You are more than what you have become. Remember who you are. Remember. Remember.
Lyrics: Hercules, Go the Distance
I have often dreamed of a far off place,
Where a hero’s welcome would be waiting for me.
Where the crowds would cheer
When they see my face.
And a voice keeps saying,
This is where I’m meant to be
I will beat the odds,
I can go the distance!
I will face the world,
Fearless, proud, and strong.
I will please the gods,
I can go the distance!
‘Til I find my hero’s welcome,
Right where I belong.
