So The Story Goes lyrics
She wakes before the morning still with moonlight in her eyes
The radio reminds her as she deeply sighs, she takes a breath
and wonders as she turns upon her side, but time keeps
illuminating each precious moment with each blink of her eyes
She has to be good she has to be strong she has to provide the
lessons for what's right and wrong she has to have faith to
follow her heart stand tall in her beliefs and so the story goes
Her little one is up now preparing for her day she quizzes her at
breakfast as they laugh and put dishes away it's still far too
early for school to begin, she's lucky she has a village to take
care of her take care of her till then
You need to be good you need to be strong remember what I
told you about knowing right from wrong you have to have
faith to follow your heart and stand tall in your beliefs and so
the story goes
You need to be good you need to be strong remember what I
told you about knowing right from wrong you have to have
faith to follow your heart and stand tall in your beliefs and so
the story goes
Another ten hours in the warehouse working on that line the
faces all around her tell the same stories deep within their eyes
she plans to go to night school so she can move further up that
line but for now she must be patient lord she must be patient
and just put in the time
She has to be good she has to be strong she has to provide the
lessons for what's right and wrong she has to faith to follow her
heart and stand tall in her beliefs and so the story goes
