| I was the one to call the shots
|
| Dream my dreams hard and slow
|
| Answered only to my self
|
| Never giving up control
|
| Until the one day that brought me to my knees
|
| And I would never be the same
|
| Once upon a time the story goes
|
| I laid it all down and let it go To lose it all, to lose it all
|
| It took a step of faith to say goodbye
|
| And everything I had I left behind
|
| To find true life
|
| Well all I longed for I found finally
|
| At the end of me And now are gone those wasted days
|
| The selfish soul the emptiness
|
| Love had dimly been replaced
|
| But that old life is laid to rest
|
| And now the new me is stronger day by day
|
| And I will never be the same
|
| Once upon a time the story goes
|
| I laid it all down and let it go To lose it all, just to lose it all
|
| I took a step of faith and said goodbye
|
| And everything I had I left behind
|
| To find true life
|
| Well all I longed for I found finally
|
| At the end of me And like an answer to a prayer
|
| Jesus you were there
|
| Calling me to live, to die
|
| To give to gain
|
| And I’ll never be the same
|
| Oooooo
|
| Once upon a time the story goes
|
| I laid it all down and let it go To lose it all, to lose it all
|
| I took a step of faith and said goodbye
|
| And everything I had I left behind
|
| To find true life
|
| Well all I longed for I found finally
|
| At the end of me Its the end of me |
