World Goes Around

Maybe your troubles got the best of you
God knows the punishment don't always fit the crime
Sometimes you know even your best won't do
Does the end of the rope mean hell or hope
That's up to you

Because the world goes around
And everything changes
Then we start again
But wearing different faces
Sometimes you're on top
Sometimes you're not
Even the sun goes down
Because the world goes around

We take our chances together
Turn for the worse or turn for the better
Who can say? Oh, oh
All we can do is endeavor
To live like nothing bad can last forever
All our days
Because the world goes around

Maybe it's not enough to know your way
Sometimes you've just gotta take the long way around
Choose your adventure, there's no pay or play
What's gonna be your measure? Pain or pleasure

Because the world goes around
And everything changes
And then we start again
But we're in different places
Sometimes you're way up
But on your way down
Like a kid in the clouds
And then the world goes around

And we take our chances together
Turn for the worse or turn for the better
Who can say? Oh, oh
All we can do is endeavor
To live like nothing bad can last forever
All our days

Because the world goes around, yeah
And everything changes
Then we start again, hey
In all our different ways
And then the world goes around, and 'round, and 'round
Then everything changes
Then we start again
In all our different ways
Oh, so different

Sometimes you're on top
And sometimes you're not
Even the sun goes down
Because the world goes around
