Story Of My Life Lyrics

Story Of My Life lyrics

High school seemed like such a blur,
I didn't have much interest in sports
or
school elections.
And in class I dreamed all day,
About a rock 'n'
roll weekend.
And the girl in the front of the room, so close yet so far
y'know she never seemed
To notice
That this silly school-boy
crush
Wasn't just pretend.

Life goes by so fast, you only want to do
what you think is right.
Close your eyes and then it's past;
(It's the)
Story of my life.

And I went down to my old neighborhood,
The faces
have all changed, there's no one left to talk to.
And the pool hall I loved
as a kid
Is now a Seven Eleven.
I went downtown to look for a job,
I
had no training, no experience to speak of.
I looked at the holes in my
jeans
And turned and headed back.

Life goes by so fast, you only want
to do what you think is right.
Close your eyes and then it's past;
(It's
the) Story of my life.

Good times come and good times go,
I only wish
the good times would last a
Little longer.
I think about the good times we
had
And why they had to end.
So I sit at the edge of my bed,
I strum my
guitar and I sing an outlaw
love song.
Thinkin' bout what you're doin'
now
And when you're comin' back.

Life goes by so fast, you only want
to do what you think is right.
Close your eyes and then it's past;
(It's
the) Story of my life.
