| Well, 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 you know, she never seemed to notice
|
| That this silly schoolboy crush
|
| Wasn’t just pretend
|
| Life goes by so fast
|
| You only wanna do what you think is right
|
| Close your eyes and it’s past
|
| Story of my life, story of my life
|
| Story of my life, story of my life
|
| And I went down to my old neighborhood
|
| The faces have all changed and there’s no one left to talk to And the pool hall I loved as a kid
|
| Is now a 7-Eleven
|
| And I went downtown to look for a job
|
| I had no training, no experience to speak of And I looked at the holes in my jeans
|
| And turned and headed back
|
| Life goes by so fast
|
| You only wanna do what you think is right
|
| Close your eyes and it’s past
|
| Story of my life, story of my life
|
| Story of my life, 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’m singin' out my love song
|
| Thinkin' 'bout what you’re doin' now
|
| And when you’re comin' back
|
| Life goes by so fast
|
| You only wanna do what you think is right
|
| Close your eyes and it’s past
|
| Story of my life, story of my life
|
| Story of my life, story of my life |
