Lyrics William Beckett

William Beckett

Our Story's Already Been Told

All night lying in bed

I'm not asleep but I'm dreaming

Those days locked in my head

I can't close my eyes without seeing

What we could possibly be

If I walk away then I'm leaving half alive

Tearing out the pages it took so long to write

We both know how it goes

Well, I'd change it if I could

But our story's already been told

One cold dark afternoon

You stood there in the doorway

A conversation ensued that we knew would happen eventually

Now that chapter is closed

I just keep on reading and feeling half alive

Tearing out the pages it took so long to write

We both know how it goes

Well I'd change it if I could

But our story's already been told

Our story's already been told

Here I am

Pouring over details

Here I am pouring over every word

That I wanted you to say

Still trying to find a way

To get closer

To the words I've never heard

All night lying in bed

I'm not asleep but I'm dreaming

Those days locked in my head

If I walk away then I'm leaving half alive

Tearing out the pages it took so long to write

We both know how it goes

I'd change it if I could

But our story's already been told

Our story's already been told

Our story's already been told
