Simon Townshend - The Way It Is (live) Lyrics
The way I'm feeling now I don't know how I will surviveLike this, but that's the way it isIt's not what you want it's what you've gotYou can't hang on to love, best admitThat's the way it is,It's the way it is, not the way it could beThe way it was, or the way it should beThe things you miss, your lover's kissA voice you never could resistYou hear it echo in the mist saying, that's the way it isOh, the feelings gone, so what went wrongDon't search for reason why'Cause that's thatThat's just where it's atLike it or not, it's what is what and there's no turning backGet this, that's just the way it isIt's the way it is not the way it could be,The way it is was or the way it should beThe things you miss your lover's kiss a voice you never could resistYou hear it echo in the mist, saying that's the way it isSoaking up the rain to wash away the painCan somebody explain why it's driving me insaneI'm soaking up the sun for I'm not the only oneThat's been burned by love,Oh, the days are long and the nights are youngYou must come to termsDon't be afraid cause that's the state of playYou can only have what you can have so give up on the ghostThat once was, there maybe no 'because'Just the way it is not the way it couldThe way it was, or the way it should beThe things you miss, your lover's kiss, a voice you never could resistPunching air with your clenched fist will not change this'Cause that's the way it is,Get this, that's just the way it is
