Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once upon a time there was a story
So unreal it's hard to tell
No one seems to understand
Once within my mind there was a name
That I can't even start to spell
'Cause I don't wanna break again
[Verse 2]
All I do and all I am
Everything's because of him
[Verse 3]
My head, my heart, my honesty
My self and I with all of me
I would give him more than I had
But all I had was nothing but pain
My voice, my eyes will never see
The way they looked and spoke of me
No where I can go to regain
Whatever I was before the rain
[Verse 4]
Every single time I close my eyes
My mind goes back to where he was
'Cause she don't wanna understand
No, no
Love is not a crime
But it sure feels like doing time
My mind is shut
'Cause she don't wanna let me in, no
[Verse 5]
And all I do and all I am
Everything's because of him
[Verse 6]
My head, my heart, my honesty
Myself and I with all of me
I would give him more than I had
But all I had was nothing but pain
My voice, my eyes will never see
The way they looked and spoke of me
No where I can go to regain
Whatever I was before the rain
Whatever I was before the rain
[Verse 7]
Once upon a time there was a story
So unreal it's hard to tell
But no one seems to understand
[Verse 8]
My head, my heart, my honesty
Myself and I with all of me
I would give him more than I had
But all I had was nothing but pain
My voice, my eyes will never see
The way they looked and spoke of me
No where I can go to regain
Whatever I was before the rain
Whatever I was before the rain
Whatever I was before the rain
