The Way Life Is Lyrics

It's just the way life is

The way life is

It's just the way life is

We were just a couple of kids

Stuck together with each other like we couldn't be missed

Us and the clique, we lived just a jump and a skip

And henceforth, the story begins

I swore that our friends were more than we thought

Forming the parts of a family of soul in the heart

In tandem we could own it all, make the world fold in our palms

Never planned we'd start growing apart

It's been so long since the minutes we would laugh together

Running as a pack 'till the path would feather

Looking back on the past, how it went so fast

Funny how you think the little things will last forever

I guess forever came fast, we were wrong

Found good things never last long

The end of it all, you don't know what you have 'till that's gone

And then you let it pass on

It's just the way life is

So long, so long

So long, oh no no

So long, so long

So long, oh no no no

We were just a couple of kids

Playing lover tryna uncover what love even is

We discovered it was more than a kiss

Or the utterance of untouchable words that form in our lips

And as we sorted it out, there was growing a distance

That we sort of allowed, getting more than indifferent

And the words turned sordid and twisted

And found the hands we once held took the form of a fist

And so we break up, filled with them doubts and fears

And the memories that feel like a thousand years

I can't shake 'em, still dream about you near

But I wake up without you there

I really wish I could bury the old but know I gotta carry the load, yeah

Maybe things could've been different but we'll never know

We can only move on with the show

It's just the way life is

So long, so long

So long, oh no no

So long, so long

So long, oh no no no

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, oh no no

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on

Oh, let go
