Your Part of the Story Acoustic Demo by Bill Mallonee Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, you get to tell
Your part of the story
And you get to live it
For better or worse
Yeah, your lips were alluring
Yeah, and slightly moist
So let's kiss away
Our part of the curse
[Verse 2]
You’re dragging your dreams
'Cross the asphalt and pavement
Try to speak of the gift
And the one who gave it
Yeah, it's hard to distinguish
To the untrained eye
This thing that you love
But it’s taken your life
[Chorus]
Nothing feels as good as holding you again
A breath and whisper pressed up against the skin
And, oh, that sweet caress we're so familiar with
Sooner or later
It comes down to this
It's all just a gift
That you're living with
[Verse 3]
You're digging through notebooks
Some empty, some full
Yeah, and mapping the caverns
Of your little skull
Yeah, you're trying to find
Something you might need
Hey, maybe a little
Little goodness in me
[Chorus]
And nothing feels as good as holding you again
Breath and whisper pressed up against the skin
And, oh, that sweet caress we're so familiar with
Sooner or later
It comes down to this
It's all just a gift
You’re living with
[Verse 4]
Now people have sent me
All cards and letters
Say they dig what I do
And it makes me feel better
But you can’t carry the weight
When it's you that’s unstable
Yeah, you let me sleep in your beds
And eat at your tables
[Chorus]
And nothing feels as good as holding you again
A breath and whisper pressed up against this skin
And, oh, that sweet caress we're so familiar with
Sooner or later
It comes down to this
It's all just a gift
Yeah, you're living with
Well, you get to tell
Your part of the story
And you get to live it
For better or worse
Yeah, your lips were alluring
Yeah, and slightly moist
So let's kiss away
Our part of the curse
[Verse 2]
You’re dragging your dreams
