How does this story end?

I guess we'll have to wait until the final credits roll.

I suppose it will depend on whether two unlikely halves can make a whole.

Or whether something hidden deep inside your soul can survive the heartache that can't help but take its toll.



How does this tale unfold?

Do heroes vanquish foes like days of old.

Is it true all we've been told?

That loyalty is worth much more than gold.

And faith and trust return a thousand fold

And love's forever more once hearts take hold



How does this story end?

Are all the plot lines sealed?

Or just around the bend

Are all these mysteries revealed?

Where does this saga lead

Do we have the faintest clue?

Will fate somehow intercede?

Will i wind up with you?



How does this story end?

In an ivy covered cottage by a waterfall.

Is this all just pretend? or do we both live happy ever after all? and all our hopes and fantasies come true and you'll always love me and i will always love you.

Always love you.

How Does This Story End?

Hazell Dean's 'How Does This Story End?' stands as a poignant example of her late 1970s soul and R&B repertoire. Recorded during a prolific period that also yielded hits like 'I'm A Fool Too' and 'What Dreams Are Made Of', the track exemplifies the genre-defining sound she brought to the UK charts. The song features Dean's signature vocal delivery, characterized by a blend of gospel-inflected power and soulful vulnerability that became her hallmark. As a staple of her discography, it captures the emotional intensity of the era's soul revival, reflecting themes of relationship uncertainty and personal reflection. The recording remains a testament to her ability to craft emotionally resonant tracks that bridged the gap between traditional soul and the emerging pop landscape of the time.
