Way Of The World

Time...had a hold on me

Waiting to waste me away into a memory

You...you're out on the street

This ain't the way that it was in the magazine

That's the way of the world...

I've got one foot draggin' so far behind

That's the way of the world...

Don't want to be the first to go

Don't let me be the last to know

And I...I've been looking for you

...in places where we used to go

What am I supposed to do?

Now...there's nowhere to run

Baby, I'd rather be blind than see you come undone

That's the way of the world...

You take one step forward...look two behind

That's the way of the world...

Everybody needs a place to hide

Everybody needs a friend to rely on

Where you gonna go when the arcade's closed

...and your whole world tumbles down lonesome road?

When you're dying to live...seems like you're living to die

(SOLO-CHORUS REPEAT)
