10 The Way it Rolls

You thought you had a love built on a strong foundation

But you didn’t count on your partner’s flirtation.

The rock you built upon was just sand that was shifting.

The wind took out your sails, you find yourself drifting.

BRIDGE

Promises and trust can very soon get broken,

Lovers will deny all the words they have spoken.

You lay down the rules and they cross the Tiber. 

Trying to pin them down you ride the back of a tiger. 

BRIDGE

 

That’s the way it goes, the way you’re feeling,

The way of passion, keeps your senses reeling.

If that’s the way it rolls; roll with it!

If that’s the way it rolls; just live it!

It’s the way it goes, you can’t escape it!

The way it goes, you can’t gaffer tape it!

If that’s the way it rolls; receive it!

If that’s the way it rolls; believe it!

It’s the way it rolls! The way it rolls!

The way it rolls! The way it rolls!

 

Why are you always drawn to guys who will hurt you;

Play you for a fool and then suddenly desert you?

Opposites attract they tell us in science.

But we’d be better off with more self reliance.
