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.
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.
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.
