do you remember once upon a time
when you were mine
the stars above were bright and new
i pulled them down for you
just when i fell in love again
you said that all good things must end
baby
that's just the way it is baby
whoa whoa
baby
that's just the way it is baby
i've never had a head for solitaire
it's so unfair
that i should have my chance and lose
feel like i've been used to help you
through another night
you spelled it out in black and white
baby
that's just the way it is baby
oh oh baby
that's just the way it is baby
the tides that once had carried you away
they bring you back today
your time has washed away my pain
you'll find that things have changed
and disappeared without a trace
you can't get back what you've erased
and i say baby
that's just the way it is
baby that's just the way it is
baby
that's just the way it is babe
oh that's just the way it is
baby
that's just the way it is baby
oh
baby
that's just the way it is baby
that's just the way it is baby
that's just the way it is baby
baby
that's just the way it is baby
baby baby
that's just the way it is baby
baby that's just the way it is baby
baby baby
that's just the way it is baby
baby that's just the way it is baby baby
