Ain't the Way

Sleep don’t come easy 

I call your name 

And when it gets too difficult 

‘Cause I remember from where I came. 

There were times 

Bad times dressed in black 

There were times 

Somehow we always did it 

We managed to get our smile back. 

But ain’t the way life goes 

Ain’t the way the story ends 

Ain’t the way the song is sung 

After every day is done. 

Life is complicated 

I miss you everyday 

Sometimes when I get desperate 

I want to run away. 

There were times 

Bad times wondering hopelessly 

There were times 

Somehow we always did it 

We managed to set ourselves free. 

But ain’t the way life goes 

Ain’t the way the story ends 

Ain’t the way the song is sung 

After every day is done. 

Ain’t the way that life goes 

Ain’t the way the story ends 

Ain’t the way the song is sung 

After every day is done. 

I still remember your eyes 

Like they were open 

I still remember your eyes 

Like they were open. 

Ain’t the way the last song is sung 

After every day is done. 

Ain’t the way the last song is sung 

After every day is done. 

Ain’t the way the last day is done 

After every song is sung.
