Lyrics

0:13So you're standing in the parking lot of life

0:20And you're trying to figure out your fate tonight

0:26And you hear a sound coming out of the car radio

0:32Saying "son if you don't learn

0:34Then you will never know"

0:38So you try to drag your feet down to the bar

0:44When you startin' to forget just who you are

0:50And they told you it was written in the stars

0:57But you've never had a chance to look that far

1:03Yeah it's just the way it goes

1:09Maybe you die young before you're old

1:15Yeah it's just the way it is

1:21Nobody's gonna tell you how to live

1:27In a world that changes everyday

1:33It's easy to get lost along the way

1:39In a world that's never as it seems

1:45Where people try to buy and sell their dreams

1:52Where people try to buy and sell their dreams

1:58Yeah it's just the way it goes

2:04Maybe you die young before you're old

2:10Yeah it's just the way it is

2:16Nobody's gonna tell you how to live

2:22Nobody's gonna tell you how to live

2:54(It's just the way it goes)

3:00(Maybe you'll die young before you're old)

3:06(Yeah it's just the way it is)

3:12(Nobody's gonna tell you how to live)

3:18(Nobody's gonna tell you how to live)

3:24Nobody's gonna tell you how to live

3:30Nobody's gonna tell you how to live

3:36Cause nobody understands just what it is

So you're standing in the parking lot of life
And you're trying to figure out your fate tonight
And you hear a sound coming out of the car radio
Saying "son  if you don't learn
Then you will never know"
So you try to drag your feet down to the bar
When you startin' to forget just who you are
And they told you it was written in the stars
But you've never had a chance to look that far
Yeah  it's just the way it goes
Maybe you die young before you're old
Yeah  it's just the way it is
Nobody's gonna tell you how to live
In a world that changes everyday
It's easy to get lost along the way
In a world that's never as it seems
Where people try to buy and sell their dreams
Where people try to buy and sell their dreams
Yeah  it's just the way it goes
Maybe you die young before you're old
Yeah  it's just the way it is
Nobody's gonna tell you how to live
Nobody's gonna tell you how to live
(It's just the way it goes)
(Maybe you'll die young before you're old)
(Yeah  it's just the way it is)
(Nobody's gonna tell you how to live)
(Nobody's gonna tell you how to live)
Nobody's gonna tell you how to live
Nobody's gonna tell you how to live
Cause nobody understands just what it is
