And So It Goes Lyrics

And So It Goes lyrics

In every heart there is a room 

A sanctuary safe and strong 

To heal
the wounds frome lovers past 

Until a new one comes along 



I
spoke to you in cautious tones 

You answered me with no pretense 

And still feel I said too much 

My silence is my self defense 



And every time I've held a rose 

It seems I only felt the
thorns 

And so it goes, and so it goes 

And so will you soon I
suppose 



But if my silence made you leave 

Then that would
be my worst mistake 

So I will share this room with you 

And you
can have this heart to break 



And this is why my eyes are closed


It's just as well for all I've seen 

And so it goes, and so it
goes 

And you're the only one who knows 



So I would choose
to be with you 

That's if the choice were mine to make 

But you can
make decisions too 

And you can have this heart to break 



And
so it goes, and so it goes 

And you're the only one who knows
