When the Story's Over Lyrics

We live our lives searching for some affection

We live alone but we all feel the same

We spend our days but can’t make a connection

We’ve dried our tears but we’re tired of the game

Calling to the broken spirits

Anyone – if you can still hear it

Hold on to the dearly departed

And anyone whose heart’s been broken

Chorus:

So I’ll raise a glass and I’ll raise my voice

Cuz there is no choice when the story’s over

So I’ll sing your praise when I sing this song

You’ve fought far too long and now the story’s over

Now the story’s over

A thousand wars, a thousand battles we’ve fought well

Our strength was lost amid the shadows and shame

We face a fear - a ghost whose tale we cannot tell

We’ve seen it's face but we don’t know it's name

Calling to the uninvited

And to you – the unrequited

Reach out for the bruised and the battered

And anyone whose heart’s been broken

Chorus

We loved and we lost

So tired from the war that we fought

We wake up alone in the darkness of night

No more of the pain from the dying flame

Those who loved and lost, that were turned and tossed

Those who paid the cost - It won’t matter anymore

And when nighttime calls and the tears still fall

I will tell you all - it don’t matter anymore

Chorus

Chorus

Oh, it’s over
