The Way It Goes - Nadia Reid

I was on my way to him

There are shadows on the straight line

I’m growing weaker by the day now

Oh, it’s awful, ain’t it?

I am looking out my window

I am looking for my friend

It’s been weeks since I have seen you

Oh, I never dreamed it would end

It’s the way it goes

It’s sad, it’s slow

You will go to be her man

I will love you if I can

I look back to when I held you

All the color left my skin

There is dust beneath a harbor

Oh, I never let you in

You are driving a new car now

Your hand begins to shake

You go to cross the centerline

And drive into the bottom of the lake

It’s the way it goes

It’s sad, it’s slow

You will go to be her man

I will love you if I can

I am looking out my window

I am looking for a friend

It’s been weeks since I have seen you

Oh, I never dreamed it would end
