That's Just How It Goes

from Misc. Singles by Jimmy Montague

/

lyrics

But you're not a messenger are you?
stuck in a stereo?
you're not a great communicator, locked in a room with a telephone.
you want the low white chairs in the kitchen, coffee, and plants in the shower wall?
and someone to miss you in the evenings, when all the lights turn off?

oh but that's just how it goes
you could hang out a light
and hope it burns all night
over the garden wall
oh but that's just how it goes
you learn to love an early morning even if you're all alone

but you're not a passenger are you?
stuck in a station hall?
you're not a great negotiator when called to court with the know it alls
I know you think you're in a rush but you can stop to see it all
and someone will miss you in the evenings
you just gotta wait for the show to fall.
