Aint That Just The Way

Aint that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down?
Movin way too fast or much too slow
He was a very special, warm and gentle person
Who put the music in the world and spoke in rhyme
And it hurts me that I never really knew him
â€~Cause all it would have taken was some time
You know he always seems to be there when I stumbled
And when mountains got too steep for me to climb
And it tears me up to think I never touched him
â€~Cause all it would have taken was some time
(Oh, oh, oh , yeah, yeah)
Aint that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down?
Movin way too fast or much too slow
Im gettin up, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
Not gettin into someone I should know
Now hes in another place and I cant reach him
And I feel, as though Im guilty of a crime
I took all he had to give and gave him nothin
And all it would have taken was some time
(Oh, yeah, yeah)
Aint that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down?
Movin way too fast or much too slow
Im gettin up, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
But not gettin into someone I should know
Aint that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down?
Movin way too fast or much too slow
Im gettin up, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
Not gettin into someone I should know
Im gettinup, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
Im gettin up, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
Im gettin up, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
Im gettin up, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
Aint that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down ?
Movin way too fast or much too slow
Im gettin up, gettin high, gettin down
Gettin no, no, nowhere
Not gettin into someone I should know
Aint that just the way that life goes
Down, down, down, down?
Movin way too fast or much too slow
