Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones It seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone And I'll be gone gone tonight The ground beneath my feet is open wide The way that I been holdin' on too tight With nothing in between
The story of my life I take her home I drive all night to keep her warm and time Is frozen (The story of, the story of) The story of my life I give her hope I spend her love until she's broke inside The story of my life
I tried carrying the weight of the world But I only have two hands Hope I get the chance to travel the world But I don't have any plans I wish that I could stay forever this young Not afraid to close my eyes Life's a game made for everyone And love is a prize
So wake me up when it's all over When I'm wiser and I'm older All this time I was finding myself, and I Didn't know I was lost So wake me up when it's all over When I'm wiser and I'm older All this time I was finding myself, and I Didn't know I was lost
And I been waiting for this time to come around But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds So wake me up when it's all over When I'm wiser and I'm older All this time I was finding myself, and I Didn't know I was lost So wake me up when it's all over When I'm wiser and I'm older All this time I was finding myself, and I Didn't know I was lost
The story of my life I take her home I drive all night to keep her warm and time Didn't know I was lost
