Long ago, in someone else's story
Someone with my name
Who looked alot like me
Came to know
A man and made a promise
He only had to say
And that's where she would be
Lately although the feelings run just as deep
The promise she made has grown impossible to keep
And yet, she wish it wasn't so
Will he miss me if I go?
In a way
It's someone else's story
I don't see myself as taking part at all
Yesterday, a girl that I was fond of
Finally could see the writings on the wall
Sadly, she knew she's left him behind
But sadder than that she knew he wouldn't even mind
And though there's nothing left to day
Would he listen if I stay?
It's all very well to say you fool it's now or never
I could be choosing
No choices whatsoever
I could be in someone else's story
In someone else's life
And he could be in mine
I don't see a reason to be lonely
I should take my chances further down the line
And if that girl I knew should ask my advice
Oh I wouldn't hesitate she needn't ask me twice
Go now! I'd tell her that for free
Trouble is, the girl is me
The story is, the girl is me...
This is one of the most beautiful and sad songs I've ever heard. The lyrics are gorgeous aren't they?
