| Have you ever been up Have you ever been down |
| Have you ever been lost |
| Have you ever been found |
| Have you ever been right |
| Have you ever been wrong |
| Have you come up short |
| Can you come along |
| Have you left a mark |
| Have you left alone |
| Have you seen the way |
| Can you come back home |
| Short stories |
| That’s what we live |
| Short stories |
| babe just take what they will give |
| Short stories |
| that’s all it’s ever been |
| Don’t you worry 'bout the ending |
| Babe, before we begin |
| I have seen the sun |
| That’s behind the rain |
| I have felt the joy |
| That’s behind the pain |
| Did you ever go soft |
| Did you ever run wild |
| I’ve been a hundred years old |
| I been a newborn child |
| I have found a smile in the midst of tears |
| I can find a heart in the midst of fear |
| Short stories |
| That’s what we live |
| Short stories |
| babe just take what they will give |
| Short stories |
| that’s all it’s ever been |
| Don’t you worry 'bout the ending |
| Babe, before we begin |
| Don’t you know I need you near me Or my happy ending’s gone |
| And I see now so very clearly |
| That our story must go on and on! |
| If I give myself |
| Can I ask for you |
| If I give you hope |
| Can we make it through |
| You know I need a dream |
| Like I need my breath |
| We need to take the life |
| Before we get the death |
| You know I need your love |
| Like I need the light |
| Yes I need the chance |
| Can it be tonight? |
| Short stories |
| That’s what we live |
| Short stories |
| Babe just take what they will give |
| Short stories |
| That’s all it’s ever been |
| Don’t you worry 'bout the ending |
| Babe, before we begin |
