The Human Family Band - 'The Story Without Ends'

WISH THAT I COULD RUN RIGHT DOWN THOSE STREETS AGAIN, WISHING I COULD MEET UP WITH MY OLD FRIENDS NOW AND THEN, WISHING I WAS BACK IN THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT, SEARCHING FOR MYSELF WISHING I WAS NOT

WISH I COULD FALL INSIDE MY NANA’S ARMS,
PORT IN A STORM COMFORT CALM,
WALK UPON GREEN GRASS WHERE I USED TO PLAY,
LONGING FOR THE PAST HERE ON MEMORY LANE,
SO TELL ME - TELL ME - TELL ME OF THE STORY WITHOUT ENDS

SPEAK TO ME OF THE GOOD TIMES THAT WE HAD
CAUSE LATELY IT’S BEEN BAD
SPEAK TO ME OF THE GOOD TIMES THAT WE HAD
HOW CAN I FEEL SO SAD

WISHING I WASN’T SO MANY MILES AWAY,
LISTENED THOUGHT STAYED NEVER TURNED TO STRAY,
I’M LONELY BRUISED BATTERED FEELING SO ALONE,
TO SCARED TO CALL WISHING YOU WOULD PHONE,
SO TELL - ME TELL ME - TELL ME OF THE STORY WITHOUT ENDS

AND YOU WERE RIGHT AND I WAS WRONG MA
TELL JOE I MISS HIM SO
IF I COULD FIND THE STRENGTH TO ASK MA
I’D LOVE TO COME BACK HOME

WISH THAT I COULD REWIND THOSE LONESOME HANDS OF TIME, WISHING I COULD TURN A DOLLAR FROM A DIME
REMEMBERING PEOPLE I LET SLIP AWAY,
CRYING MYSELF TO SLEEP WISHING MY DAY’S AWAY
SO TELL ME - TELL ME - TELL ME HOW THIS STORY ENDS
