Our Story's Already Been Told Lyrics

All night lying in bed.

I'm not asleep but I'm dreaming.

Those days locked in my head.

I can't close my eyes without seeing.

What we could possibly be.

If I walk away then I'm leaving half a life.

Tearing out the pages it took so long to write.

... We both know how it goes.

Well, I'd change it if I could.

But our story's already been told.

One cold dark afternoon.

You stood there in the doorway.

A conversation ensued that we knew would happen eventually.

Now that chapter is closed.

I just keep reading and feeling half a life.

Tearing out the pages it took so long to write.

We both know how it goes.

Well I'd change it if I could.

But our story's already been told.

Our story's already been told.

Here I am.

Pouring over details.

Here I am pouring over every word.

I wanted you to say.

Still trying to find a way

To get closer... To the words I've never heard

Ohh, Ohh.

All night lying in bed.

I'm not asleep but I'm dreaming.

Those days locked in my head.

If I walk away than I'm leaving half a life.

Tearing out the pages it took so long to write.

We both know how it goes.

I'd change it if I could.

But our story's already been told.

Our story's already been told.

Our story's already been told.
