The Way It Is

I tried to say what I wanted to but I couldn't And the words were just rolling on my tongue And I knew in that moment it was the last chance I had to tell you You're the meaning behind every song But you were right there And I live right here And I don't want through windows to hear The sad confessions from the same girl with a stupid story I wish I said ' it is what it is, it means nothing as I never did' But I guess that's the way it is This time you were driving and I would be lying If I said I wasn't looking for tears Now I am trying to understand the reason How your moments can captivate my years But you were right there (right there) And I live right here (right here) And I don't want through windows to hear (windows to hear) The sad confessions from the same girl with a stupid story (a stupid story) I wish I said (I wish I said) It is what it is, it means nothing as I never did' And I guess that's the way it is I had to wait for two years To say 'I understand' I've been looking for so many ways To close your open hand But you are always my first plan 'Cause we were right there And I don't want them to hear And you're right there And that's the way it is
