Someone Else's Story - Chess In Concert

Long ago

In someone else's lifetime

Someone with my name Who looked a lot like me

Came to know

A man and made a promise

He only had to say And that's where she would be

Lately Although the feelings run just as deep

The promise she made has grown impossible to keep

And yet I wish it wasn't so

Will he miss me if I go

In a way

It's someone else's story

I don't see myself As taking part at all

Yesterday

A girl that I was fond of

Finally could see The writing on the wall

And sadder than that she knew he wouldn't even mind

And though there's nothing left to say

Would he listen if I stay

It's all very well to say you fool it's now or never

I could be choosing

No choices whatsoever

I could be

In someone else's life And he could be in mine

I don't see

A reason to be lonely

I could take my chances

Further down the line

And if That girl I knew should ask my advice

Oh I wouldn't hesitate she needn't ask me twice

go now I'd tell her that for free

Trouble is the girl is me

The story is the girl is me
