Lyrics

Stories

Intro:
I had ink on my fingers as I ran downstairs
I was twelve years old, you were sitting in that chair
You read my story, said, “this isn’t bad,
just a few small revisions.” I said “thanks, dad.”

Verse 1:
I walked to school, I was so proud.
Showed it to my teacher, she said out loud,
“you should be a writer, you have stories to share”
that’s when I knew, it was then and there

that this dream started growing, everyday
although I tend to keep it hidden away
But there’s no way to fight it, it’s in my blood
It’s who I am. It’s what I love.

Pre-chorus:
Inventing lands where I long to go
With magic in the air and angels in the snow

Chorus:
This is why there are stories. This is what stories do
They’re the love all around us. They’re in me, they’re in you
They’re the past and the present. Mixed into one
The glory of the moment when life has just begun.

Verse 2:
Some memories are fading from the corners of my mind
While others keep parading, they sneak up from behind
I don’t belong anywhere, except inside my head
When I feel alone, there are stories to be read

But folks don’t read anymore, so what’s the point of writing
If no one’s going to read it, what’s the point of fighting
For a dream that’s in the air; a kite held by a string
Not getting anywhere, not changing anything

But sunlight gives me hope and hope is what I need right now
There’s new life all around. Spring is going to come somehow
I’m waiting for the buds to open up and bloom
I’m going to find a light to brighten up this room

Pre-chorus:
Inventing lands where I long to go
With magic in the air and angels in the snow

Chorus:
This is why there are stories. This is what stories do
They’re the love all around us. They’re in me, they’re in you
They’re the past and the present. Mixed into one
The glory of the moment when life has just begun.

Chorus 2 background lyrics:

Inventing lands, long to go
Magic in the air, angels in the snow
Everyone is there, beauty of the sky
Stardust of our dreams
Hopes that never die
