Ain't That The Way It Goes?

When change is knocking at your door You can't survive there anymore It's time to pack your things and go And leave the fine folks that you know So say goodbye to all the faces That made you feel so safe and sure And say hello to stranger places That'll take you Down all alone, in the cold, but you've got to move on Ain't that the way it goes? When obstacles get in the way And no one hears the words you say Well you've tried everything you can You took more than you could stand All your new sisters and new brothers Have a deep unspoken love They're looking out for one another They won't make you, feel so alone, in the cold, you can keep moving Ain't that the way it goes? Nobody told you It would be without its share of regret Well they'll come and they'll go and they'll make you so low But you know you haven't turned back yet... So say goodbye to all the faces That made you feel so safe and sure And say hello to stranger places That'll take you Down all alone, in the cold, but you've got to move on Ain't that the way it goes?
