That’s the Way it Goes

time came rolling by me
and she went out to see
the sights that came around
listen to the sound

only in history
we can let it be
in the songs of yesterday
where we can stay

that’s the way it goes
that’s the way it goes
that’s the way it goes
my love
that’s the way it goes

sing-song harmony
in the days of mystery
words of ancient longing
wanting to belong

then came the shadow
then came the dark
it all slipped away
with the end of day

that’s the way it goes
that’s the way it goes
that’s the way it goes
my love
that’s the way it goes

Waiting For So Long

in the days
I look for you
in the nights
I sing to you
my song

I’ve been waitin’ for so long
waitin’ for so long
waitin’ for so long
waitin’ for so long
who’s gonna sing my song?
who’s gonna sing my song?
of love

all the time
I’ve been so true
all the time
I’ve been waitin’ for you
my love

I’ve been waitin’ for so long
waitin’ for so long
waitin’ for so long
waitin’ for so long
who’s gonna sing my song?
who’s gonna sing my song?
of love
