Long ago
In someone elses lifetime
Someone with my name
Who looked a lot like me
Came to know
A man and made a promise
He only had to say
And thats where she would be
Lately
Although her feelings run just as deep
The promise she made has grown impossible to keep
And yet I wish it wasnt so
Will he miss me if I go?
In a way
Its someone elses story
I dont see myself
As taking part at all
Yesterday
A girl that I was fond of
Finally could see
The writing on the wall
Sadly
She realized shed left him behind
And sadder than that she knew he wouldnt even mind
And though theres nothing left to day
Would he listen if I stay?
Its all very well to say you fool its now or never
I could be choosing
No choices whatsoever
I could be
In someone elses story
In someone elses life
And he could be in mine
I dont see
A reason to be lonely
I should take my chances
Further down the line
And if
That girl I knew should ask my advice
Oh I wouldnt hesitate she neednt ask me twice
Go now!
Id tell her that for free
Trouble is, the girl is me
The story is, the girl is me
