One more day in the valley 

Then I'm free to roam

One more night of insect bites 

And beating myself to a foam

But that's the way it goes, I suppose



Everything that you taught me 

Was all I've ever known 

We took this ride, side by side

But guess what? I got off alone

And that's the way it goes, I suppose

And that's the way it goes 

But then again, who really knows?



When I walk into this room 

I turn to stone

In this place that gave me sleep

That once upon a time 

I called home

That's the way it goes, I suppose

That's the way it goes

But then again, who really knows?
