The Story Of My Life - Neil Diamond

The story of my life

Is very plain to read

It starts the day you came

And ends the day you leave

The story of my life

Begins and ends with you

The names are still the same

And the story’s still the truth

I was alone

You found me waiting

And made me your own

I was afraid

That somehow I never could be

The man that you wanted of me

You’re the story of my life

And every word is true

Each chapter sings your name

Each page begins with you

It’s the story of our times

And never letting go

And if I die today

I wanted you to know

Stay with me here

Share with me, care with me

Stay and be near

And when it began

I’d lie awake every night

Just knowing somewhere deep inside

That our affair just might write

The story of my life

Is very plain to read

It starts the day you came

It ends the day you leave
