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
