Did It For The Story

They put the pen to paper

With a little whiskey and wine

She loved his sense of humor

He loved the way that she smiled

Knew she was gone tomorrow

She knew that he couldn't stay

But they were here today

Yeah but they both knew forever wasn't in the cards that they drew

They danced around a wasted I love you

They had a feeling it would never come true

They just did it for the story

Did it for the night

Did it for the feelings that they didn't wanna fight

Went down in a blaze of glory

They wouldn't trade the flames

They made a bunch of memories and they made up both the names

They just did it for the story

Did it for the only reason on their minds

And now it's on their minds all the time

When they left the bar

Didn't make it very far yeah

They wound up round the corner somewhere underneath the stars

No it didn't take em' long

For they were good and gone

Yeah they made a little love to a couple country songs

Hey but they both knew forever wasn't in the cards that they drew

They danced around a faded I love you

And they had a feeling it would never come true

They just did it for the story

Did it for the night

Did it for the feelings that they didn't wanna fight

Went down in a blaze of glory

They wouldn't trade the flames

They made a bunch of memories and they made up both the names

They just did it for the story

Did it for the only reason on their minds

And now it's on their minds all the time

They just did it for the story

Did it for the night

They did it for the feelings that they didn't wanna fight

Went down in a blaze of glory

They wouldn't trade the flames

They made a bunch of memories and they made up both the names

They just did it for the story

Did it for the only reason on their minds

And now it's on their minds all the time
