Please Don’t Tell Me How The Story Ends Lyrics

This could be our last good night together
We may never pass this way again
Just let me enjoy it 'til it's over, or forever
Please don't tell me how the story ends

See the way our shadows come together
Softer than your fingers on my skin
Someday these may be all we remember of each other
Please don't tell me how the story ends

Never's just the echo of forever
Lonesome as a love that might have been
Let me go on lovin' and believin' 'til it's over
Please don't tell me how the story ends

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
