That's The Way To Do It - Kenneth C M Young

The many miles we walked The many things we learned The building of a shrine Only just to burn May the wind be at your back Good fortune touch your hand May the cards lay out a-straight All from your command That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is Blue heron leaves the northern sky It trusts the journey to new heights What's the meaning of the scar If we don't learn how to heal? Should we ever be apart? Then how does it feel? That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is Shine light into darkness Shine light into darkness That's the way it is That's the way it is (so many miles to walk) That's the way it is (so many things we've got to learn) That's the way it is (oh-oh, that's the way it is) That's the way it is (oh) That's the way it is

Operator, oh could you help me place this call? You see, the number on the matchbook is old and faded He's living in L.A. With my best old ex-friend, Ray A girl, he said he knew well and sometimes hated Isn't that the way they say it goes? Well, let's forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine And to show I overcome the blow I learned to take it well I only wish my words could just convince myself That it just wasn't real But that's not the way it feels Operator, could you help me place this call? 'Cause I can't read the number that you just gave me There's something in my eyes You know it happens every time I think about a love that I thought would save me But isn't that the way they say it goes? Well, let's forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine And to show I've overcome the blow I've learned to take it well I only wish my words could just convince myself That it just wasn't real But that's not the way it feels No, no, no That's not the way it feels Operator, oh let's forget about this call There's no one there I really wanted to talk to Thank you for your time Ah, you've been so much more than kind You can keep the dime But isn't that the way they say it goes? Well, let's forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine And to show I've overcome the blow I've learned to take it well I only wish my words could just convince myself That it just wasn't real But that's not the way it feels No, no, no That's not the way it feels No, no, oh-no

(Need, need, you do that to me, whoa oh) (Need, you do that, yeah) I really can't ignore How you walk into a room and still give me chills Do you really care? Hey, hey When I look into your eyes I'm under your love spell (love spell) I've been thinking a lot about it Let's just get away where we belong All the money in the world can't buy your love 'Cause our conversations so deep (so deep) It's like a harp when you speak (you speak) I lose my mind when you leave (you leave) Oh, baby, babe, you love me right, you hold me tight Hold me up against this music (woo-hoo) Oh, you do it, you do it to me (woo-hoo) Baby, babe, you love me right You hold me tight (whoa-oh) Up against this music Oh, you do it, you do it to me (yeah, yeah) How you do, why you do, why you do Why you do that to me? How you do, why you do, why you do Why you do that to me? Should I give my time? Just don't waste it, grab my waist and, baby Just stay right here So, babe, take my hand Please don't play with my perception Let's make it last instead I've been thinking a lot about it Let's just get away where we belong All the money in the world can't buy your love 'Cause our conversations so deep (so deep) It's like a harp when you speak (you speak) I lose my mind when you leave (you leave) Oh, baby, babe, you love me right, you hold me tight Hold me up against this music (woo-hoo) Oh, you do it, you do it to me (woo-hoo) Baby, babe, you love me right, you hold me tight (whoa-oh) Up against this music Oh, you do it, you do it to me (Yeah yeah) How you do, why you do, why you do Why you do that to me? How you do, why you do, why you do Why you do that to me?

Snowy nights and Christmas lights Icy window panes Make me wish that we could be Together again And the windy winter avenues Just don't seem the same And the Christmas carols sound like blues But the choir is not to blame But it doesn't have to be that way What we had should have never have ended I'll be dropping by today 'Cause we could easily get it together tonight It's only right Crowded stores, the corner Santa Claus Tinseled afternoons And the sidewalk bands that play their songs Slightly out of tune On the windy winter avenues There walks a lonely man And if I told you who he is Well, I think you'd understand But it doesn't have to be that way What we had should have never have ended I'll be dropping by today 'Cause we could easily get it together tonight It's only right But it doesn't have to be that way What we had should have never have ended I'll be dropping by today 'Cause we could easily get it together tonight It's only right
