Story Lyrics
You're part of my story
You're part of my story
[Verse 1]
I had a secret that I kept to myself, yeah
I had a one-way ticket that was goin' nowhere
[Pre-Chorus]
You could be the one (Ah-ah)
You could be my sun (Ah-ah)
Everything is fun till the walls come close and
Take away the light (Ah-ah)
Run into the night (Ah-ah)
Everything'll be alright (You said)
[Chorus]
Turn another page
Baby, take the stage
You know the stars are comin' out for ya (You said)
Ebb and then they flow
Baby, feel the glow
You know, you know, you know
[Verse 2]
You were the one puttin' out that fire (Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah, ah)
And when the rain came down, I couldn't get much higher, yeah
You could be the one (Ah-ah)
You could be my sun (Ah-ah)
Everything is fun till the walls come close and
Take away the light (Ah-ah)
Run into the night (Ah-ah)
Everything'll be alright (You said)
[Chorus]
Turn another page
Baby, take the stage
You know the stars are comin' out for ya (You said)
Ebb and then they flow (Ah-ah)
Baby, feel the glow (Ah-ah)
You know, you know, you know the answer
Turn another page
Baby, take the stage
You know the stars are comin' out for ya
Ebb and then they flow (Ah-ah)
Baby, feel the glow (Ah-ah)
You know, you know, you know
[Bridge]
I didn't walk on the wild side or fall in the night sky
I didn't let the world know, I, I
I was fightin' a big fight, fightin' a dark light
Ragin' hard on the inside
Hard on the inside
You said
Turn another page
Baby, take the stage
You know the stars are comin' out for ya (You said)
Ebb and then they flow (Ah-ah)
Baby, feel the glow (Ah-ah)
You know, you know, you know the answer
Turn another page
Baby, take the stage
You know the stars are comin' out for ya
Ebb and then they flow (Ah-ah)
Baby, feel the glow (Ah-ah)
You know, you know, you know
[Outro]
You're part of my story, mmm
You're part of my story
Story, story
You're part of my story, mmm
You're part of my story
Story, story, story
About
“Story” serves as the closing track of the standard edition of Kylie Minogue’s sixteenth studio album, Tension, released on September 22, 2023.
The song departs from the lyrical theme the album had going until that point (fun, sex, love, dancing) and we get to see a more personal side of Kylie, just like everyone, she struggles and has problems too but there was always people supporting her, people who are part of her story.

It meant so much to me to write this song. I don’t get into what the difficulty was, but I had to overcome some things and get through a difficult period, and I’m acknowledging that for my sake. There’s something about the dichotomy of the aloneness you feel and the help you get from people who will support you through any difficulty that I can’t put in words as well as I put it in the lyrics. Once you get through it, you appreciate that the people who were helping you will never know how much they are part of your story and how much they have helped you, in ways that you can never repay them. I was so delighted by the number of people who came up to me at the listening parties to say that they love ‘Story.’ I felt so moved, and vindicated really, that it’s not just speaking to me and the people I love, but to others as well. And they’ll take from it what they will.
