lyrics

THAT'S THE WAY THE STORY GOES

We look for all life's answers over horizons near and far
We search for understanding, sometimes that's just the way things are

Time knows no wrong
The universe has guided you
It marches along
Its lifeless arms will pull you through

Life offers no solution, that's just the way the story goes

Queried by a friend's concerns that went beyond a caring nod
Was I accepting fate, was I angry at my God

Time knows no wrong
Thoughts held within no one will know
It marches along
I shake my head and turn to go

It's not fate or God's bidding, it's just the way the story goes

The leaves turn brown and blow away
The evening's clouds roll in and turn to grey
Bare trees cast shadows in the night
As darkness closes in it dims the sight
You reunite with your goal to calm the storm in your soul

Seasons mark our existence, one to the next they quickly pass
Along with love and loss, sweet memories with time amass

Time knows no wrong
Words not quite formed roll off the tongue
It marches along
Songs without melodies are sung

Sometimes there's no solution, it's just the way the story goes
