Our Story

There are stories
We hope will never end
That draw us back again, and again
Like our story
Started out to be
A perfect tragedy
The girl who needed nothing
And the man upon his steed

She was so beautiful
The night her eyes met mine
I must admit that I was blind reason

What is this pedestal
We put love upon?
That sings us like a song
We think it takes us somewhere
Few have ever gone

And hope keeps holdin' on
Hope never will give in
And just about the time you think you're over it
It has a way of reelin' you back in

There are stories
Crazy shiny of things
Sometimes they are better left for dreams

And in our glory
We lived a thousand lives
And love was free of all condition
But in the morning
Always comes the light of day
Exposes the charade
No matter how we fight it
The truth won't go away

And hope keeps holdin' on
And hope never will give in
And just about the time you think you've had enough
It doubles back reels you right back in

There are stories
Way beyond our means
Stories that are better left for dreams

Hope keeps holdin' on
And hope never will give in
Oh and just about the time you think you're over it
It has a way of reelin' you back in

There are stories
Crazy shiny things
Stories that are better left for dreams
