The Way

She said we've only just begun
But words get lost in translation
Cuz I was shot by the starting gun
She said you ain't meeting me halfway
And I can't get further alone
But she was leaving on a morning flight
And she departed right on time that night
She said it's coming to an end tonight
Cuz you ain't showing your affection right
But I've only got myself to thank
When I'm making you fill in the blanks

So let's change this song
Kick off your shoes
Put a record on
Life's too short to live with enemies
People come and people go
But one thing I'll always know
One day along the way
You'll know what to say

Take two and it's more revealing
When the lights are bright
Let the night bring healing
There's no use in concealing
The summertime good vibe city feeling
(She was leaving on a morning flight)
I'm trying to get the message through
(Out of sound, out of sight)
To set right your wrong
Your melody it must be strong
(She was leaving)
So if you come across this song
I hope that you're inclined to sing along
(She said it's coming to an end tonight)

So let's change this song
Kick off your shoes
Put a record on
Life's too short to live with enemies
People come and people go
But one thing I'll always know
One day along the way
(She said it's coming to an end tonight)
I'll know what to say

One day along the way
One day, one day
One day along the way
(She said it's coming to an end tonight)
One day along the way
One day, one day
(And she was leaving)
One day along the way
(She said it's coming to an end tonight)
One day along the way
(And she was leaving)
One day along the way
(She said it's coming to an end tonight)
(As she was leaving)
And she was leaving
(As she was leaving)
