The Way Things Are lyrics

Spendin’ all your days just chasin’ money Fame is just a game, it's empty, honey And that's the way things are That's the way things are That's the way things are That's the way things are Wastin’ all your days facin’ the mirror If we close our eyes, we might see clearer The way things are The way things are See things as they really are The way they really are You can go your own way if you want to If you don't mind, I might go there with you Stand or fall, we'll always have each other Give my heart to you and no one other And that's the way things are That's the way things are That's the way things are The way they really are You can go your own way if you want to If you don't mind, I might go there with you Don't go lookin’ for the answers in somebody else Take it from someone who knows it's all within yourself You can be free Oh, you can be free Lay me down beside that stream a-flowin’ Lay me down under that Moon a-glowin’ That's the way things are The way things are That's the way they really are The way things are You can go your own way if you want to If you don't mind, I might go there with you
