Everybody wants an easy ride on the
merry go round that we call life
Take a drive on cruise control then you
wake to find it's a winding road
I had my dreams in view when the
money ran out and the engine blew
Hung my tears out to dry then my
dreams fell out of that clear blue sky
And I, I was walking the clouds
Feeling so safe and sound
Something else knocks me down
Oh that's the way it is
You gotta roll with the punches
That's the way it goes
You gotta bend when the wind blows
You live you learn, you crash and burn
It's hit or miss
And that's the way it is
One fine day you wake up
completely hopelessly fallin in love
He's just what you're looking for the only
problem is that the man's not sure
Another guy'll give you everything, only
problem is you don't feel a thing
Well I know from experience nothing's
ever gonna make perfect sense
Oh, one day you get what you want
But it's not what you think
Then you get what you need
CHORUS
Yeah, they say your soul is growing
But sometimes I feel like throwing something
CHORUS (repeats several times)
