Lyrics:
this is the story of a boy
i’d adore him if i had a choice
it’s like he don't know i exist but i
would absolutely love it
if he was mine

bad dates on the east side
breaks down in the meantime
drinks whiskey to sleep right
but it don't do the trick cause life is a bitch

moved here from a small town
fell in with the wrong crowd
i don't blame him cause
most people suck and then leave you crushed

he doesn't know my name
but i could give much more
and it's such a shame
i'm sure you've heard it all before

this is the story of a guy
who's holdin back the tears in his eyes
he doesn't know what he deserves
but he still falls so hard it hurts
this is the story of a boy
i’d adore him if i had a choice
it’s like he don't know i exist but i
would absolutely love it
if he was mine

burnt out on hollywood
didn't go like he thought it would
and i watch him on the internet
trying to be happy
he wouldn't have to if he knew that he could have me

i know it all sounds typical
he's golden i’m invisible
he’ll never know
and maybe that's just how it goes

this is the story of a guy
who's holdin back the tears in his eyes
he doesn't know what he deserves
but he still falls so hard it hurts
this is the story of a boy
i’d adore him if i had a choice
it like he don't know i exist but i
would absolutely love it
if he was mine

and he looks so good
walking through that door
oh i wish i could
be the ending that he's looking for

this is the story of a guy
who's holdin back the tears in his eyes
he doesn't know what he deserves
but he still falls so hard it hurts
this is the story of a boy
and i’d adore him if i had a choice
it like he don't know i exist but i
would absolutely love it
if he was mine

What a lovely gesture by John Hampson at the beginning, kind of passing the torch of this song to the next custodian.
