Story of My Life

Once there was a pretty girl

She consumed my world

And every hour felt so long

When she was far and gone

But also at the same time

Another got my sign

Unaware she’s mistaken

She needs to awaken

One girl likes me but I like another

The first one can’t move on from me, oh brother

I had to tell her off; she ran to her mother

And cried, cried … cried, cried, cried, cried

Cried, cried … cried, cried, cried, cried

Love can be a mess sometimes

When you’re supposed to find

One who is your second half

One who makes you laugh

Think I might have found the one

Don’t want her to run

Here comes the moment of truth

To go and talk to you

The one girl’s gone but I still like another

She says she doesn’t feel the same, oh brother

When I heard that, you know what I discovered?

I died, died … died, died inside

Died, died … died, died inside

Well both of the girls have left

It sure can be a test

I even let some tears flow

To watch both girls go

It can be so hard to look

At what they have took

Now I’m trying to restart

My poor broken heart

The first is still gone but so is the other

Now I’m sitting here alone, oh brother

I know I said I’m fine and that I recovered

But I lied, lied … lied, lied, lied, lied

Lied, lied … lied, lied, lied, lied

That’s the story of my life

That’s the story of my life

That’s the story of my life

I thought up some of the chorus/reprise one day while in the shower (a great place for pondering one’s own life). Many people have probably experienced situations like this, including myself. It seems to go around and around. You like someone but they don’t like you (or vice versa). It sure can be tough! Keep your hopes up though; there will be one person out there who will break that cycle.
