Chorus: <br />One way or another, we'll all need each other <br />Nothing's gonna turn out the way you thought it would <br />But friends and lovers, don't you duck and cover <br />Cause everything comes out the way it should <br /> <br />Verse: <br />Someone's in the back yard, banging on the door <br />Daddy's gone away, he's coming back no more <br />His baby's curled up on a stranger's floor <br />Mama's thinking family dinners weren't too much to ask for <br /> <br />Prechorus: <br />Everybody here's got a story to tell <br />Everybody's been through their own hell <br />There's nothing too special about getting hurt <br />Getting over it, that takes the work <br /> <br />Chorus: <br />Cause one way or another, we'll all need each other <br />Nothing's gonna turn out the way you thought it would <br />But friends and lovers, don't you duck and cover <br />Cause everything comes out the way it should <br /> <br />Verse: <br />Blessed are the hungry, blessed are the week <br />Blessed are the humble, blessed are the meek <br />Blessed are the ones on the other side <br />Blessed are we for just being alive <br /> <br />Prechorus: <br /> <br />One day I stopped wanting anything at all <br />The heavens opened up like a waterfall <br />No use in worrying about when it ends <br />Just for now be thankful for what i get <br /> <br />Chorus: <br />Cause one way or another, a man's gonna suffer <br />It makes no difference the way you wanted it <br />But friends and lovers, don't you duck and cover <br />Cause everything comes out the way it should in the end <br /> <br />Prechorus: <br />Seems like life is a palindrome <br />You cry when you die, you cry when you're born <br />In between it's all about the ups and downs <br />Add 'em all together, they cancel each other out <br /> <br />Chorus: <br />Cause one way or another <br />One way or another <br />You won't get what you wanted <br />You'll get enough, for sure <br />One way or another <br />Winter pays for the summer <br />Won't get what you wanted <br />What you got'll be good <br /> <br />Verse: <br />Someone's in the back yard, banging on the door <br />Daddy's gone away, he's coming back no more <br />His baby's curled up on a stranger's floor <br />Mama's thinking happy endings weren't too much to ask for<br /><br />
