lyrics

STORYTELLER

You were good company
A way to free
I lived vicariously
Through those stories you’d share with me

When the house lay dark
I’d cross the hall
To dim lit room
From the lamplight against the wall
As your spotlight to tell you you’re on
Storyteller let your stories be told

You were a constant protection
You gave me direction
From my cruel scary worlds deception
So I’d always know the right way to go
You were courageous and brave
You’re not afraid to live
So I watched from your shadow
While your life laid itself out for you

(Refrain)
But if these roles were ever reversed
And I lived experience first
I hope you have me prepared

(Chorus)
Baby please, will you please
Come on back to me
I’m waiting now just to see
If I can do this out on my own
So baby please, will you please
Come on back to me
I’m waiting now just to see
If I can do this out on my own
Storyteller don’t let your stories be gone

You had a house of cards
Till the wind blew hard
Now they’re lying flat on the ground
No I haven’t heard your voice in a while
And the silence is the cruelest
It sends a harshness that controls us
Leaving each of us lost
Separated from the past that we know

(Repeat Refrain)
(Chorus)

Cuz I can do this now on my own
And your stories will never be gone
