Whenever you think you've got it made
Everything changes on you
Ain't that the way
Nothing is stranger than the truth
And how it comes to you
Ain't that the way
In this life we are living
Moment to moment, day by day
And through all our tribulations
We reach out for each other
And if we're lucky, someone cares enough to say
Ain't that the way
Whenever you think you're in control
Everything turns around
Ain't that the way
One day you're flying
Next day you're on the ground
Ain't that the way
So it goes
You never know what's gonna happen
You never know, but something always does
And sometimes in quiet desperation
You realize it's never gonna be the way it was
Ain't that the way
Whenever you think you've got it all
There's a wall in front of you
Ain't that the way
You gotta go through it, it's life
And it's all okay
Ain't that the way
Ain't that the way Whenever you think you've got it made Everything changes on you Ain't that the way Nothing is stranger than the truth And how it comes to you Ain't that the way In this life we are living Moment to moment, day by day And through all our tribulations We reach out for each other And if we're lucky, someone cares enough to say Ain't that the way Whenever you think you're in control Everything turns around Ain't that the way One day you're flying Next day you're on the ground Ain't that the way So it goes You never know what's gonna happen You never know, but something always does And sometimes in quiet desperation You realize it's never gonna be the way it was Ain't that the way Whenever you think you've got it all There's a wall in front of you Ain't that the way You gotta go through it, it's life And it's all okay Ain't that the way Explain Request ×
