|
You see, I don't like thunder |
|
I can't stand the rain |
|
And the wind kept coming strong |
|
It swept me off my feet again |
|
As the days were getting darker the night got so long |
|
Another reason to remind myself that life gets sometimes rough |
|
There's a world outside this window |
|
Listen to my words |
|
It's no place for bargain or soft types |
|
Many fall off as well |
|
And don't be a blind fool if love comes along |
|
It'll swallow and spit you out just like it did to your mom |
|
So don't build a bridge if you can't stand on it |
|
Don't talk of love as you invented it |
|
Don't say I told you so - it hurts |
|
That's the way it goes |
|
Don't walk the storm if you're afraid of it |
|
Don't pick a fight if you can't handle it |
|
Stand up straight and learn to live with it |
|
It's life |
|
That's the way it goes |
|
You see, it makes no difference whatever you do |
|
As long as you find happiness you'll always find a way through |
|
And don't marry the first girl that comes along |
|
Oh, I know you'll get disappointed |
|
Take it from someone who knows |
|
Don't build a bridge if you can't stand on it |
|
Don't talk of love as you invented it |
|
Don't say I told you so - it hurts |
|
And that's the way it goes |
|
Don't walk the storm if you're afraid of it |
|
Don't pick a fight if you can't handle it |
|
Stand up straight and learn to live with it |
|
It's life |
|
That's the way it goes |
|
You should have seen me a long time ago |
|
Living my glory days in the sun |
|
And if you can't stand it that I tell you, boy |
|
You'll find it out for yourself |
|
I am only here to support you |
|
Just like a mother is supposed to do |
|
Don't build a bridge if you can't stand on it |
|
Don't talk of love as you invented it |
|
Don't say I told you so - it hurts |
|
That's the way it goes |
|
Don't walk the storm if you're afraid of it |
|
Don't pick a fight if you can't handle it |
|
Stand up straight and learn to live with it |
|
It's life |
|
And that's the way it goes |
