about

'That’s How the Story Goes'

It's a view from the other side of life, looking back, giving thanks to happy times shared, and departing to a next chapter.

Written and composed with mixed emotions of grief, loss, separation and ultimately, the celebration of the life of a loved one.

The chorus of this sobering track evokes the sentiment of the message it conveys from the heart:

'Destiny
What’s the plan for me?
Misery or do I celebrate?
Brevity
My reality
My finality
That’s how the story goes'

lyrics

That’s How the Story Goes


V1/:
My body’s aching
I’m breaking
Away at last
Broken, unspoken
It’s over now
It’s over now
I’m done


Ch/:
Destiny
What’s the plan for me?
Misery or do I celebrate?
Brevity
My reality
My finality
That’s how the story goes


V2/:
Memories are guilt-free
Reminds me how I still remember
Your eyes and your smile
A place for me
A place for me
In paradise


Ch/:
Destiny
What’s the plan for me?
Misery or do I celebrate?
Brevity
My reality
My finality
That’s how the story goes
That’s how the story goes


Br/:
Don’t let the past define you
If the thought of me reminds you
Of the bliss
The life I miss
If only we could try to
Be there to see how wonderful life is!
And reminisce
Oh - a lifetime!


Ch/:
Destiny
What’s the plan for me?
Misery or do I celebrate?
Brevity
My reality
My finality
That’s how the story goes
My reality
My finality
That’s my destiny
That’s how the story goes
That’s how the story goes

Coda
That’s how the story
That’s how the story
That’s how the story goes

Look to the sky until you find your paradise [That’s how the story, that’s how the story, that’s how the story goes]
I still remember when I looked into your eyes [That’s how the story, that’s how the story, that’s how the story goes]
My destiny is giving me the reason why [That’s how the story, that’s how the story, that’s how the story goes]
I celebrate the day you came into my life [I celebrate the day you came into my life].
