I haven't heard from you in quite a while
I have to say I really missed you
I haven't found a way to find a smile
Except in dreams in which I kiss you
And I always thought that I'd win you back
And we'd end this night with our hearts intact but no
That's not how the story goes
And I always thought that we'd never break
That we'd always sing the songs we make but no
That's not how the story goes
Ohhhhh oh
That's not how the story goes
That's not how the story goes
Ohhhhh oh
That's not how the story goes
That's not how the story goes
I haven't been myself in quite a while
I see your face in every window
I often hold the phone but never dial
I'm here alone but overshadowed
And I always thought that the day would come
When the rumours stop and we'd be as one but no
That's now how the story goes
And I always thought that you'd change your mind
That you'd grace my stage and be by my side but no
That's not how the story goes
Ohhhhh oh
That's not how the story goes
That's not how the story goes
Ohhhhh oh
That's not how the story goes
That's not how the story goes
And I always thought that I'd win you back
And we'd end this night with our hearts in tact but no
That's not how the story goes
And I always thought that we'd never break
That we'd always sing the songs we make but no
That's not how the story goes
Ohhhhh oh
That's not how the story goes
That's not how the story goes
Ohhhhh oh
That's not how the story goes
That's not how the story goes
