Story of My Life

Good Monday to you. Made it through another in-law-touched weekend, and i'm here to tell about it so who says Life isn't magical! (ok, i'll be good, I swear ). Anyway, I felt like Social Distortion summed up my feelings this morning in a great song. I thought maybe it would ring true for some of you... If you like men, insert a "he" into the lyrics (as did I), if you're male (or like women) well then-you're set! :) -Enjoy these words, and better yet, grasp all the today has to offer... Tuesday will be gone before you know it.

Story Of My Life (Social Distortion)

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
Y'know she never seemed to notice
That this silly school-boy crush wasn't just pretend

Chorus:
Life goes by so fast
You only want to do what you think is right
Close your eyes and then it's past;
(it's the) story of my life

And I went down to my old neighborhood
The faces have all changed, there's no one left to talk to
And the pool hall I loved as a kid is now a seven eleven

I went downtown to look for a job
I had no training, no experience to speak of
I looked at the holes in my jeans and turned and headed back

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 sing an outlaw love song
Wonderin' bout what you're doin' now and when you're comin' back

Life goes by so fast
You only want to do what you think is right
Close your eyes and then it's past;
(it's the) story of my life
