[00:00.45]Stories Don't End - Dawes
[00:01.74]
[00:06.51]From the paper umbrellas
[00:10.15]In both of our drinks
[00:12.30]
[00:12.85]To the shadows that walk without us
[00:18.47]
[00:19.29]My account of the details
[00:22.40]Is as clear as you'd think
[00:25.15]Kept up by friends that
[00:27.50]Still ask about us
[00:31.15]
[00:31.87]If our lives were a movie
[00:34.43]
[00:34.95]If our lives were a book
[00:37.32]
[00:38.20]It'd be longer than I'd recommend
[00:42.13]
[00:44.21]'Cause if you're telling a story
[00:47.71]At some point you stop
[00:50.40]But stories don't end
[00:55.23]
[01:03.26]The remains of a person
[01:05.93]
[01:06.62]The habits of a ghost
[01:09.16]You could still find in
[01:11.09]The places you used to
[01:14.90]
[01:15.95]Still reading off cue
[01:17.81]Cards and raising a toast
[01:21.73]To the stories I still
[01:24.62]Tell about you
[01:27.49]
[01:28.47]But the plot line wanders
[01:32.14]And versions change
[01:34.59]And I don't know where to quit
[01:38.60]
[01:40.25]If I tried to show every side
[01:42.59]Of you through words of a song
[01:46.66]I'd say a fraction of what I'd intend
[01:50.66]
[01:53.02]'Cause if you're telling a story
[01:55.67]
[01:56.61]At some point you stop
[01:59.63]But stories don't end
[02:04.43]
[02:06.47]The next time I see you
[02:08.58]And my conscience tells me
[02:10.91]
[02:11.94]That the episode has long
[02:14.60]Since been closed
[02:17.06]
[02:18.53]But he's not the one that
[02:21.29]Gets up every morning
[02:23.50]
[02:24.32]And wonders how long
[02:26.16]A memory keeps it's pose
[02:29.11]
[02:31.30]And how much that the
[02:32.90]Man beside you knows
[02:35.14]
[02:37.66]And how much of the
[02:39.20]Toll it's taken shows
[02:41.46]
[03:12.24]Like a famous singer
[03:15.75]That lost his voice
[03:18.39]That we all still want to meet
[03:22.51]
[03:24.89]If our lives were a movie
[03:27.34]
[03:28.13]If our lives were a book
[03:30.21]
[03:30.89]It'd be longer than I could defend
[03:34.64]
[03:36.98]'Cause if you're telling a story
[03:39.92]
[03:40.61]At some point you stop
[03:43.78]But stories don't end
[03:47.72]
[03:50.19]Stories don't end
[03:54.86]
[03:55.68]On Stories don't end
[04:01.25]
[04:07.88]They go on and on
[04:12.86]
[04:13.98]Just someone stops listening
[04:17.45]
[04:20.43]They go on and on
