The Way It Is Lyrics

Everybody wants an easy ride
on the merry-go-round that we call
life.
Place your dreams on cruise control
then you wait to find its a
winding road.
I had my dreams in view
when the money ran out and the
engine blew;
I hung my tears out to dry as my
dream fell out of that big
blue sky.

That's the way it is-
you gotta roll with the
punches.
That's the way it goes-
you gotta bend when the wind
blows.
You live, you learn,
your crash, you burn,
its hit or
miss-
that's the way it is.

One fine day you wake up
completely
hopelessly fallen in love.
He's just what you're looking for,
the only
problem is thats the man's not sure.
Another time he'll give you
anything,
the only problem is you don't feel the same.....
Well I know
from experience nothing's
ever goin' to make perfect sense.

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


And OH! that's the way it is-
you gotta roll with the
punches.
That's the way it goes-
you gotta bend when the wind
blows.
You live, you learn,
you crash, you burn,
its hit or
miss-
that's the way it is.

YEAH! they say your soul is going,
but,
sometimes I fell like throwing something!

That's the way it
is-
you gotta roll with the punches.
That's the way it goes-
you gotta
bend when the wind blows.
You live, you learn,
your crash, you
burn,
its hit or miss-
that's the way it is.
