Oldest Story of Love Lyrics

I spent all day watching a reality show

So I could walk away from the tragedy that is my own

They had dolled-up faces, looked pretty amazing, driving up the streets of LA

While I was stuck here in a London full of rain

I turned the TV off put my favorite dress on

Danced in the living room to some Taylor Swift song

In a poor attempt to make myself forget where you'll rest your head tonight

Oh oh

This is how the story goes

Oh oh

I should have known it from her first hello

With her beach blond hair and musical laugh, you found your treasure at last

Oh oh

I should have known how the story goes

Oh oh

The oldest story of love ever told

I spent the next day reading a book about luck

'Cause I just couldn't face looking at my phone knowing how

You'd be holding her, showing the world how you found the perfect girl

While I was stuck here, in a cold apartment in town

I Put the book down, put my favorite dress on

Danced in the living room to some Taylor Swift song

In a poor attempt to make myself forget where you'll rest your head tonight

Oh oh

This is how the story goes

Oh oh

I should have known it from her first hello

With her beach blond hair and musical laugh, you found your treasure at last

Oh oh

I should have known how the story goes

Oh oh

The oldest story of love ever told

I shut the world off put my favorite dress on

Danced in the living room to some Taylor Swift song

In a poor attempt to make myself forget where you'll rest your head tonight

I turned the music up and sang all the words loud

Shame that line goes: we never go out of style

I guess I should accept you won't be here when I put my head to rest tonight

Oh oh

This is how the story goes

Oh oh

I should have known it from her first hello

With her beach blond hair and musical laugh, you found your treasure at last

Oh oh

I should have known how the story goes

Oh oh

The oldest story of love ever told
