The Story of My Life lyrics

I got to tell you 'bout this tragedy My daddy died when I was only three My momma said: It's time to be the man And ever since I've done the best I can This is the story of my life This is the story of my life Now don't be acting so surprised Everything will be fine Now don't you think that I won't survive In a way I'm blind We packed our bags and moved across the sea We traveled there with only just our dreams That's where I met my boy and rock 'n' roll Now that I'm here I'm gonna save your soul This is the story of my life This is the story of my life I won't forget this paradise Even when we say goodbye 'Cause in my mind the Sun will rise Everyday in my mind Running away, I'm running for freedom I'll do what I want, I'll be who I want to Chasing our dreams and chasing tomorrow We'll do what we want, we'll be who we want to Now don't be acting so surprised Everything will be fine Now don't you think that I won't survive In a way I am blind Ooh This is the story of my life This is the story of my life
