Lyrics

The Oldest Story In The World

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Yeah it makes perfect sense

Seeing how the seeds were sown

To find you out there on your own

You said your good-byes

You broke all the ties

It struck me dumb

To think I tried for you

Tonight you can feel the season changing

You'll never change

When you're no better than the weather

You're cool

But there's rain in your heart

You're blown like a feather

And that's the oldest story in the world

You lost the key to paradise

That's the oldest story in the world

Did we have it made?

Somehow I thought we could remain

If nothing lasts

No one to blame

But you can't look back

To where you got off the track

And that's a mystery

That we'll never crack

It's just the oldest story in the world

Lost the key to paradise

That's the oldest story in the world

Someday we'll got to set it right

And that's the oldest story in the world

You'll hear it

Again and again

That's the oldest story in the world, yeah

Somehow I thought we could remain

If nothing lasts

No one to blame

And you can't look back

To where you got off the track

That's a mystery

That we'll never crack

And that's the oldest story in the world

Lost the key to paradise

That's the oldest story in the world

Someday we'll got to set it right

That's the oldest story in the world

Just like a Rolling Stone

That's the oldest story

That's the oldest story

Now you can't go home

And that's the oldest story in the world, yeah

Well I don't want to leave

But it's time to go

Where?

Man, I just don't know

And that's the oldest story in the world, yeah
