Your Life Story

Maybe love is all anybody ever should believe in

Maybe life is just something that employs us till we die

Maybe all we know is that the sun will come up every morning

Maybe time can choose whether to be earth bound or to fly

Everybody thinks they've got it down

I won't worry, the truth's always been found

In your life story

Maybe you're the one waiting for the ship to find your harbor

Maybe you're the one looking past the forest to the trees

Maybe you still think, the older that you get life just gets harder

Maybe you would trade everything for just one moments peace

Everybody's trained to hear the sound

Of their hearts calling now, you can write yours down

It's your life story

Gather up your telegrams, your faded pictures, best laid plans

Work some postcards, 40 files, every sunset in the sky

Carry with you maps and string flashlights, friends will make you sing at

And stars to help you find your place, music, hope and amazing grace

Maybe what we live is nothing but a tangled little mystery

Maybe what we take is nothing that has ever had a name

Maybe love will fade, like the parchment pages of our history

Maybe life is made that flickers from some brilliant burnish flame

Everybody's waiting for a sign

I won't worry, I think we'll be just fine

In your life story, it's your life story

In my life story, this is our life story

In your life story
