The Way That It Goes

Give me a smile
Give me a stare
Give me a reason to care
We got it wrong
We made mistakes
We made it up far too late

You're telling me why
You're telling me off
You're telling me anything at all
Maybe you're right
Maybe I need you, I need you, I know

It's hard letting go
When you love what you hold
It's harder to know what you want till it's gone

She says this is the way that it goes
Oh-oh-oh-oh
You know what you want or you don't
Oh-oh-oh-oh
This is the way that your heart never lies, every time
So listen while we're young
Nobody knows
No-oh-oh-oh
This is the way that it goes

Show me the way
Show me a sign
Show me a song that you like
Knock on the door
Give me your coat
Won't you come in from the cold

I try to pull you close
I try to take it slow
You in my arms
Turn off the light
Keeping the feeling, the feeling alive

It's hard letting go
When you love what you hold
It's harder to know what you want till it's gone

She says this is the way that it goes
Oh-oh-oh-oh
You know what you want or you don't
Oh-oh-oh-oh
This is the way that your heart never lies, every time
So listen while we're young
Nobody knows
No-oh-oh-oh
This is the way that it -

"Don't think too hard
Listen to the words", she said
All we have is time

She says this is the way that it goes
Oh-oh-oh-oh
You know what you want or you don't
Oh-oh-oh-oh
This is the way that your heart never lies, every time
So listen while we're young
Nobody knows
No-oh-oh-oh
This is the way that it goes
