Stories - Big Little Lions

Stories we have

That we tell ourselves

Stories that bend with time

Histories change

Like books on a shelf

Pages that need a rewrite

All these words

All these words

We leave behind

All these thoughts are chased away

By bottles of wine

And stories

Memories fade

We polish the past

And let all our sorrow rust

Fill in the blanks

Make up the end

From parts of a book we loved

Once

All these words

All these words we leave behind

All these thoughts

Are chased away

By bottles of wine

And stories

All these words

All these words we leave behind

All these thoughts

Are chased away

By bottles of wine

And stories
