How I Go Lyrics

I could tell you the wildest of tales
My friend the giant and traveling sales
Tell you all the times that I failed
The years all behind me, the stories exhaled
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e101616-yellowcard~how_i_go_lyrics.html ]
And I'm drying out, crying out,
This isn't how I go

I could tell you of a man not so tall
Who said, Life's a circus, and so we are small.a^€
Tell you of a girl that I saw
I froze in the moment and she changed it all

And I'm drying out, crying out,
This isn't how I go
Hurry now, lay me down
And let these waters flow, flow

Son, I am not everything you thought that I would be
But every story I have told is part of me

You keep the air in my lungs
Floating along as a melody comes
And my heart beats like tympani drums
Keeping the time while the symphony strums

And I'm drying out, crying out,
This isn't how I go.
Hurry now, lay me down
And let these waters flow, flow
Let it flow (let it flow)
Let it flow (let it flow)

Son, I am not everything you thought that I would be
But every story I have told is part of me
Son, I leave you now, but you have so much more to do
And every story I have told is a part of you
