The Way It Goes Lyrics by Gloriana

Gloriana

2009

[Verse 1]
So glad I hung up the phone
My best friend called
And told me not to go
I'd just get my heart broke one more time
I walked in and there you were
Looking better than I ever remembered
Smiling that smile
Like nothing ever happened
You were never not mine
Crazy, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[Chorus]
Ain't that the way it goes
Always stumbling into something
Life's an open road
You gotta take it
If you just let go
Lose your way to find that one thing
That you've been missing
You almost missed it all
[Verse 2]
So glad, I turned around
I know where I'd be right now
Somewhere downtown thinking about
What could've been
And love would never be again
Crazy, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[Chorus]
Ain't that the way it goes
Always stumbling into something
Life’s an open road
You gotta take it
If you just let go
Lose your way to find that one thing
That you've been missing
You almost missed it all
[Bridge]
But I didn’t, I turned that car around
Thank god I put that phone down
So glad I didn't listen
I never know what I’d be missing
[Bridge]
Ain't that the way it goes
Always stumbling into something
Life's an open road
You gotta take it
Crazy, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[Chorus]
Ain't that the way it goes
Always stumbling into something
Life's an open road
You gotta take it (You gotta take it)
If you just let go
Lose your way to find that one thing
That you've been missing
Ain't that the way it goes
Always stumbling into something
Life’s an open road
You gotta take it (You gotta take it)
If you just let go
Lose your way to find that one thing
That you've been missing
You almost missed it all
You almost missed it all
You almost missed it all
