The Story lyrics

My friends avoid the issue

And talk of other things

But I know what they're thinking

And so do you

'Cause I have heard the story

I don't believe it's true

All the things they're saying

About you

If you had something on your mind

I know you'd say

'Cause you always said if we had problems

We would find a way

But do you know you haven't said much lately

And you look a little pale

Is there something on your mind

Or are you just unwell?

My friends avoid the issue

And talk of other things

But I know what they're thinking

And so do you

'Cause I have heard the story

I don't believe it's true

All the things they're saying

About you

It's nice in times of trouble

To have a friend around

But I need some time alone with you

I'm sure he wouldn't mind

So let's sit by the fire

Just you and me alone

And you can cook a special meal

And I'll go buy some wine

My friends avoid the issue

And talk of other things

But I know what they're thinking

And so do you

'Cause I have heard the story

I don't believe it's true

All the things they're saying

About you

I'm beginning to get the picture

It's all becoming clear

Why'd you have to do it

Did you have to make it here?

You can't mean what you're saying

Tell me it's not true

It wouldn't be so hard

If I didn't love you

My friends avoid the issue

And talk of other things

But I know what they're thinking

And so do you

'Cause I have heard the story

I don't believe it's true

All the things they're saying

About you

All the things they're saying

About you
