Way of the World

If you take the tears from crying eyes
Will the hurt just disappear?
Put a weapon in the hands of a frightened man
Will he show no fear?
So we stand and we watch as the city lights
They go out one by one

Mother Nature sits on the other side
With a loaded gun
Why is there blue sky?
Why is there red sky?
Now's the time to ask the reason
Should the blue sky
Meet the red sky
Should the rules have to change at all?
We all know whatever they say

Time is on our side
This world has been here before
Just going around and around
We all agree as far as we can see
It's just the way of the world
That's how it's meant to be
There's right and there's wrong

There's weak, ooh and there's strong
It's just the way of the world
And that's how it's meant to be, oh oh oh
Take the motion from the spinning wheel and watch it stop

Take the danger out of a naked flame and what have you got?
If you take the anger out of a broken heart, you feel no pain
Could you swear if you had that second chance
You wouldn't do it again?
Why is there blue sky?
Why is there red sky?
Now's the time to ask the reason
Should the blue sky
Meet the red sky

Should the rules have to change at all?
We all know whatever they say
Time is on our side
This world has been here before
Just going around and around (round, round, round)
We all (we all) agree as far as we can see
It's just (it's just) the way of the world
That's how it's meant to be
There's right (there's right) and there's wrong
There's weak, ooh and there's strong
'Cause it's just (it's just) the way of the world
And that's how it's meant to be, oh oh oh
(INTERLUDE)
We all (we all) agree as far as we can see
It's just (it's just) the way of the world
That's how it's meant to be (it's how it's got to be, yeah)
There's right (there's right) and there's wrong
There's weak, ooh and there's strong
'Cause it's just (it's just) the way of the world
And that's how it's meant to be (how it's got to be, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
We all agree as far as we can see
It's just (it's just) the way of the world
And that's how it's meant to be (it's how it's got to be, yeah, eah)
