That's Just The Way Things Go Lyrics

And I know

I'm pushing back the inevitable

Someone always leaves first

That's just the way things go

Oh, I know

I know, I know, I know

That's just the way things go

On the day you forget

To text me back

I won't sit around and cry

No, I won't give a crap

I'll just put my phone on the highest shelf

Somewhere I cannot see

But I'll leave the ringer on

Just in case you remember me

On the day you stop

Asking how I am

I won't care about that at all

No, I won't give a damn

I'll just put shoes on, go out and dance

With all my friends, but see

My phone's in my back pocket

Just in case you remember me

And I know

I'm pushing back the inevitable

Someone always leaves first

That's just the way things go

Oh, I know

I know, I know, I know

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

On the day you stop saying my name

I won't stop saying yours at all

No, I'll just say it all the same

Just because I can't move on

Doesn't mean you can't be free

Free to love anyone else

Like the way you loved me

Woo, 1, 2, 3!

And I know

I'm pushing back the inevitable

Someone always leaves first

That's just the way things go

Oh, I know

I know, I know, I know

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

And I don't want to stay friends

Out of your pity for me

Can we both agree

That's just a shitty thing to do?

To someone who still loves you

And I know

I'm pushing back the inevitable

Someone always leaves first

That's just the way things go

Oh, I know

I know, I know, I know

Hey! Hey! Hey!

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

That's just the way things go

Oh, yeah!

Things go!

Ooh

That's just the way things go
