Carole King - Ain't That The Way lyrics

rate me

Ain't that the way

Whenever you think you've got it made

Everything changes on you

Ain't that the way

Nothing is stranger than the truth

And how it comes to you

Ain't that the way

In this life we are living

Moment to moment, day by day

And through all our tribulations

We reach out for each other

And if we're lucky, someone cares enough to say

Ain't that the way

Whenever you think you're in control

Everything turns around

Ain't that the way

One day you're flying

Next day you're on the ground

Ain't that the way

So it goes

You never know what's gonna happen

You never know, but something always does

And sometimes in quiet desperation

You realize it's never gonna be the way it was

Ain't that the way

Whenever you think you've got it all

There's a wall in front of you

Ain't that the way

You gotta go through it, it's life

And it's all okay

Ain't that the way
