Larry Norman - The Same Old Story lyrics

Now it's the same old story
And the same old stage
Though the cast is different and you're
Looking at a different page
All the lines seem familiar as you
Try to memorize your part
And when you finally meet the lady you
Know she's gonna break your heart

Now it's the same old story though you
Approach it from a different place
And the lady is lovely she
Wears such a beautiful face

You're in love with the lady and you
Know she's gonna break your heart

It's the same old story
Just read between the lines
Your heart will end up broken
And you'll tell your self that love
Is just a state of mind

Well it's the same old story and you
Know just how it's gonna end
You're gonna wind up losing so
There's no reason to pretend
But you go through the motions and you
Tell her that you'll never part
You say your love will last forever but
You know she's gonna break your heart
