Ain’t That The Way It Goes?

[Verse 1]
When change is knocking at your door
You can't survive there anymore
It's time to pack your things and go
And leave the fine folks that you know
So say goodbye to all the faces
That made you feel so safe and sure
And say hello to stranger places that'll take you
Down all alone, in the cold, but you've got to move on
Ain't that the way it goes?

[Verse 2]
When obstacles stand in your way
And no one hears the words you say
Well, you've tried everything you can
You took more than you could stand
All your new sisters and new brothers
Havе a deep unspoken love
They'rе looking out for one another
They won't make you feel so alone in the cold, you can keep moving on
Ain't that the way it goes?

[Bridge]
Nobody told you
It would be without its share of regret
Well, they'll come and they'll go and they'll push you so low
But you know you haven't turned back yet, yeah

[Outro]
So say goodbye to all the faces
That made you feel so safe and sure
And say hello to stranger places that'll take you
Down all alone, in the cold, but you've got to move on
Ain't that the way it goes?
Ain't that the way it goes?
Oh, ain't that the way it goes?
And you know, ain't that the way it goes?
Oh, ain't that the way it goes?
Oh, ain't that the way it goes? Yeah
Ooh, you know, ain't that the way it goes?
Ooh
