I woke up in the morning Not ready for what was in store I sensed there might be a problem 'Cause your distance was weighing on me You told me you weren't happy I wish I had known before 'Cause I would've been ready To give you my love and more To give you my love and more To give you my love and more But this is the way it goes This is the way it goes I'm sitting on the couch crying Trying to make some sense You don't even say goodbye I guess it was too hard for you You told me you weren't happy I wish I had known before 'Cause I would've been ready To give you my love and more To give you my love and more To give you my love and more But this is the way it goes This is the way it goes This is the way it goes This is the way it goes I couldn't read your mind in time I wish you'd opened up and let me in But this is the way it goes This is the way it goes This is the way it goes This is the way it goes
