The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I thought I knew you
And you were my friend
And now we're through, you and me
It's definitely the end
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
I thought we had it
Covered in May
But we only grabbed at it
In those few short days
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
If I had known what I know now
I never would have tried to try again
If I had done what I said I'd do
It would have been me who left
Instead of you
Do you remember
Before it was gone
Deep in December
Our love was the sun
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
