The Story Lyrics - Brandi Carlile
Review The Song (7)
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
And baby I broke them all for you
Oh because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do and I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
Oh but these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
Oh yeah and its true, that I was made for you
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
And baby I broke them all for you
Oh because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do and I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
Oh but these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
Oh yeah and its true, that I was made for you

"Our" story | Reviewer: SyrNO | 12/22/08
I saw the video on VH1 and was blown away. 2 days later, I saw it again and went out and bought the CD (first contemporary CD from a retailer in YEARS). I can't get the song out of my head, and now it will be the theme of our wedding Xmas Eve. Thank you Brandi and band for giving us this gift.

helping me. | Reviewer: elle | 11/24/07
i heard this song on a cheesy paid programming tv music show, and this is the most amazing song.
it made me realize that i was made for the person that i married...it was almost over...but it was this song. it is so very uplifting.
this is the only song that gives me a happy cry.
WOW | Reviewer: Zoe | 8/31/07
I've never listened to a song that made me cry as soon as I heard it. Wonderful, an amazingly powerful voice that made me buy the rest of her album.
This is amazing | Reviewer: Soaring Higher Than Life | 7/11/07
this song makes me soar higher than life. before i heard this i was failing is class, i hardly ever talked to my friends etc. this song sends out a message of love and peace, and i hear that message and i use it to make my life better.
Give a listening ear... | Reviewer: FCL | 5/31/07
Beautiful. Amazing. Powerful. Raw. Edgy. Emotional. Music at its best.
