Life Got in the Way Lyrics by The Distance (Rock)

The Distance

0

There were promises I made to myself
Seems that now they gather dust upon my shelf
I swore I'd have the world down at your feet
But fate and circumstance can be so hard to beat
I meant to call you back a thousand times
But I couldn't cross that line
Heaven's got to wait
I don't want to leave this in the hands of fate
Every time I find the words to say
Somehow, life always gets in my way
Here the days they never seem to end
In my job five days a week, I've learnеd to just pretend
The hours thеy would stick here in my throat
If I didn't keep your picture in my overcoat
Now I sit and watch the waves break on the shore
I don't wanna watch no more
Heaven's got to wait
I don't want to leave this in the hands of fate
Every time I find the words to say
Somehow, life always gets in my way
Heaven's got to wait
I don't want to leave this in the hands of fate
Every time I find the words to say
Somehow, life always gets in my way
Heaven's got to wait
I don't want to leave this in the hands of fate
Every time I find the words to say
Somehow, life always gets in my way
Heaven's got to wait
I don't want to leave this in the hands of fate
Every time I find the words to say
Somehow, life always gets in my way
Ooh, in my way
Yeah, always in my way
Every time, every time I find the words to say
