The Story Songtext
von Jana Kramer

Climb on up
Into momma′s bed
It's just us tonight
Don′t need a book, just snuggle in

I'll tell you a story
I wish I didn't have to say
About a girl who fought with all her heart
But still had to walk away

Once upon a time he loved me
Once upon a time I loved him too
It all fell apart in a moment
Lord, I wish it wasn′t true

′Cause you deserve the perfect family
The fairy tales you know so well
Instead of sittin' here listenin′ to the story
I wish I didn't have to tell

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh


I know it′s hard
To see momma cry
But I promise you
That we're all gonna be alright

I need you know
That you will always be loved
You′re the very best chapters
In the story of us
And it goes

Once upon a time he loved me
Once upon a time I loved him too
It all fell apart in a moment
Lord, I wish it wasn't true

'Cause you deserve the perfect family
The fairy tales you know so well
Instead of sittin′ here listenin′ to the story
I wish I didn't have to tell

Now it′s time to pick up all these broken pieces
So that we can be the story we believe in

Once upon a time it was us three
Starting over all brand new
Dreaming of the happy ending
I always wanted for you


'Cause you deserve the perfect family
The fairy tales you know so well
Instead of sittin′ here listenin' to the story
I wish I didn′t have to tell

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

The story
Wish I didn't have to tell
