This is the way it's meant to be I know, it's the sigh of the times It's the way that we make things right... When the word is out from the other side She turns around Cause day and night she's waited patiently Now a different kind of world out there Is

In a mellow tone Feeling fancy free And I'm not alone I've got company Everything's OK The live long day With this mellow song I can't go wrong That's the way to live

I hate to see that evening sun go down Cause my baby, he's gone left this town Feelin' tomorrow like I feel today If I'm feelin' tomorrow like I feel today I'll pack my truck and make my give-a-way St. Louis woman with her diamond ring Pulls that man

Hey Daddy why you always gone away? Hey Daddy, can't you stick around and play? Can't you see I'm growing fast? This time here will never last Hey Daddy, think of me today Yeah you know Time sure does fly by It just goes on and on and on One day you look

And they say She's in the class A team Stuck in her daydream Been this way since eighteen But lately her face seems Slowly sinking, wasting Crumbling like pastries The worst things in life come free to us And go mad for a couple grams

We'll never be as young as we are now (Ohohohohohoh ohohoh ohohohohohoh) As young as we are now It's time to leave this old black and white town Let's seize the day, let's run away Don't let the colors fade to gray We won't wait for tomorrow It's too

Someday it will come together Someday we will work it out I know we can turn it up all the way ('Cause this is our someday) Someday is what we make it Someday is like here and now What way what way what way 'Cause this is our someday Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh yeah, babe You’re so beautiful now And I'm scared that you’re gonna slip away And you, you’ve got this wide-eyed gaze And a smile that you'll carry through your days It’s the easiest way To know you’re alive

Every day, I need you even more At the nighttime too There's no way I could ever let you go Even if I wanted to Ordinary no, really don't think so Not a love this true Common destiny

Away from everybody Away from everything If you can't stand the way this place is Take, yourself to higher places Higher places, Tonight, my head is spinning I need something to pick me up
