This is the story of the dream you had last night,
The one about dancing on a sugar-white beach,
And the lemon-drop sun was shimmering down
As you swayed back and forth in the coconut breeze.
This is the story of the girl you left behind,
The one who always watched you just to see your smile.
And the bittersweet tears fell down her cheeks,
As you kissed your girl goodbye to leave for awhile.
This is the story of the chance you never took,
The one that could have done the world so much good,
And the lost possibilities you never knew you had
As you waved a fond goodbye to the brightest of futures.
This is the story of the life you chose to live,
The one that got you nowhere 'cause you didn't think it could.
And your stubborn reputation means more than it was meant to
As you slowly fade away like all the old folks should.
