Someone Else's Story

[00:07.73] Long ago
[00:10.53] In someone else's lifetime
[00:14.18] Someone with my name
[00:16.86] Who looked a lot like me
[00:21.42] Came to know
[00:25.07] A man and made a promise
[00:27.82] He only had to say
[00:31.46] And that's where she would be
[00:35.10] Lately
[00:36.98] Although the feelings run just as deep
[00:42.33] The promise she made has grown impossible to keep
[00:49.66] And yet I wish it wasn't so
[00:54.16] Will he miss me if I go?
[01:04.92] In a way
[01:08.69] It's someone else's story
[01:12.23] I don't see myself
[01:14.92] As taking part at all
[01:19.48] Yesterday
[01:23.12] A girl that I was fond of
[01:26.73] Finally could see
[01:29.44] The writing on the wall
[01:33.93] Sadly
[01:34.89] She realized she'd left him behind
[01:40.39] And sadder than that she knew he wouldn't even mind
[01:47.69] And though there's nothing left to say
[01:53.06] Would he listen if I stay?
[01:59.36] It's all very well to say you fool it's now or never
[02:07.63] I could be choosing
[02:10.34] No choices whatsoever.
[02:15.74] I could be
[02:19.42] In someone else's story
[02:23.07] In someone else's life
[02:25.78] And he could be in mine
[02:30.20] I don't see
[02:33.04] A reason to be lonely
[02:36.60] I could take my chances
[02:40.37] Further down the line
[02:43.96] And if
[02:47.57] That girl I knew should ask my advice
[02:50.27] Oh I wouldn't hesitate she needn't ask me twice
[02:57.53] Go now!
[02:59.30] I'd tell her that for free
[03:02.93] Trouble is, the girl is me
[03:11.10] The story is, the girl is me.
