Tekstovi: Jo Dee Messina. That's The Way It Is.

Everybody wants an easy ride
On the merry-go-round that we call life
Take your drive on cruise control
Then you wait to find out 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 walkin' the clouds
Feelin' so safe and sound
Then somethin' else knocks me down

Well, 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 fallen in love
He's just what you're lookin' for
The only problem is that the man's not sure

Another guy will give you everything
Only problem is you don't feel a thing
Well I know from experience
Nothings 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

Well, 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

Yeah, they say your soul is growin'
But sometimes I feel like throwin' somethin'

And that's the way it is
You gotta roll with the punches
And that's the way it goes
You gotta bend when the wind blows

And 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
Oh, and that's the way it is

Oh, that's the way it is, yeah
That's the way it is
That's the way it is
You gotta roll with the punches
Oh, you gotta bend when the wind blows

Oh, that's the way it goes
That's the way it is
That's the way it goes, oh yeah
You gotta roll with the punches
That's the way it is
That's the way it is
