Thats The Way It Is — текст песни (Jo Dee Messina)

Everybody wants an easy ride on the merry-go-round that we call life

Take a drive on cruise control, then you wake to find its a winding road

I had my dreams in view when the money ran out and the engine blew

Hung my tears out to dry, then my dreams fell outta the clear blue sky

And i, I was walking in the clouds feeling so safe and sound

til something else knocks me down

Chorus:

Oh and thats the way it is

You gotta roll with the punches

Oh and thats the way it goes

You gotta bend when the wind blows

You live, you learn

You crash, you burn

And thats the way it is



One fine day you wake up, completely, hopelessly fallen in love

Hes just what youre looking for, the only problem is that the mans not sure

Another guy will give you everything, the only problem is you dont feel a thing

Well I know from experience, nothings ever gonna make perfect sense

Oh, one day you get what you want, but its not what you think, then you get what you need





Chorus:

Oh and thats the way it is

You gotta roll with the punches

Oh and thats the way it goes

You gotta bend when the wind blows

You live, you learn

You crash, you burn

And thats the way it is



Yea

They say your soul is growing

But sometimes I feel like throwing something

And thats they way it is

You gotta roll with the punches

And thats they way it goes

You gotta bend when the wind blows



Repeat chorus
