The Story of My Life Lyrics by Melinda Schneider

The Story of My Life Lyrics


    I was born in 71
    Policeman dad and a yodelling mum
    Got no brother sister ties
    I'm an only child
    Nana sang to me on the swing
    Made me laugh with her tickling
    Took the stage at the age of 3
    It was mum and me

    I remember when I would fall asleep
    Under mums fur coat back stage
    How the sound of her voice would comfort me
    And I guess that nothings changed
    So here I am before you now still trying to get it right
    That's the story that's the story of my life

    17 I was fashion queen
    It was great lycra tights were in
    I would sew for half the night
    Just to look right
    Met a man he was everything
    Broke my heart
    I was 20 then
    Had to learn how to be strong
    How to move on

    I remember when I cried all night
    When my dog Rhoda died
    And at 15 when I lost my Nan
    She said God was by her side
    So here I am before you now
    Still trying to get it right
    That's the story that's the story of my life

    I remember the way he looked at me
    When I walked on down the aisle
    And how I cried those happy tears
    When I became his wife
    And yet here I am before you now
    Still trying to get it right
    That's the story that's the story of my life

    I was born in 71
    Policeman dad and a yodelling mum
    I am proud of where I'm from
    And who I've become
