The Way It Goes
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.
Let's give it half a try
I think there's something here and I don't know why
This thing's been growing strong
Day after day and it's still not gone
I'm feeling so revealed
I'm thinking that my thoughts are unconcealed
I'm standing all alone with big problems of my own
I'm not meaning to be sly
But at least please tell me why
Oh tell me, tell me why
Even if I try
It's just the way it goes, this is just the way it goes
My mind is overrated
I'm good, but I am jaded
This is just the way it goes, it's the way it goes
I'm searching for some friends
Elevators going down, down again
I can't stand to be on loan
I'm drooling like a dog that's waiting for a bone
So maybe if the sky turns blue
We could fly as if the day was just for me and you
If you're alone use the phone and we'll give it a try
The coast is clear I need to hear you say
“Tell me why, oh why?”
Oh tell me, tell me why
Even if I try
It's just the way it goes, this is just the way it goes
My mind is overrated
I'm good, but I am faded
This is just the way it goes, it's the way it goes
