JIVE - Stories Lyrics

Once upon a time
You were mine
I was yours
There was nothing more to say
Everyday
We loved each other
Every way
Without a wait
It surely seemed like fate
That we would live happily
Ever after
Till one afternoon
It came way too soon
That was it
It was called a quit
Every day we felt the pain
Every way
You could feel it in your bones
The dark and depressed tones
Of our unhappy ending
That's why
Stories are told
Some are old
Some are new and don't end well
When this occurs
You defer
From the role that you play
Stories are told
Some are bold
Some are dark but enlightening
When they unfold
You behold
How you feel is not what you say
The next day
The week after
One month later
It still felt the same
The pain
I tried to subdue it
By taking the blame
But we couldn't get through it
It weighed on our hearts
We tried to play different parts
That's why
Stories are told
Some are old
Some are new and don't end well
When this occurs
You defer
From the role that you play
Stories are told
Some are bold
Some are dark but enlightening
When they unfold
You behold
How you feel is not what you say
The day to day does not always reflect what truly lies inside our hearts
That's why we love to hear about completing and perplexing story arcs
In them you will find
Problems of the same kind
You'll be forced to deal
And move on
That's why
Stories are told
Some are old
Some are new and don't end well
When this occurs
You defer
From the role that you play
Stories are told
Some are bold
Some are dark but enlightening
When they unfold
You behold
How you feel is not what you say
That's why
Stories are told
Some are old
Some are new and don't end well
When this occurs
You defer
From the role that you play
Stories are told
Some are bold
Some are dark but enlightening
When they unfold
You behold
How you feel is not what you say
That's why
Stories are told
Some are old
Some are new and don't end well
When this occurs
You defer
From the role that you play
Stories are told
Some are bold
Some are dark but enlightening
When they unfold
You behold
How you feel is not what you say
