Road Apples - The Way That It Goes
lyrics
Downtown Fifth Avenue - near Second Street or so
I make my way the way I want to go
Im not expecting you to understand it
I dont imagine that youd want to know
Live down low Im low now youd best believe it
I used to care but that was years ago
But if I were there today
You would send me on my way
Id be left out in the cold
Id be left out in the cold
Id be left out in the cold
Thats the way that it goes

The winters round these parts are cold dark and lonely
The wind can cut right through into your heart
Ive been out here so long that I dont really notice
Some things are real and some things fall apart
A shelter from the storm I never found it
Dont ask me why I wont know where to start
But if I were there today
You would send me on my way
Id be left out in the cold
Id be left out in the cold
Id be left out in the cold
Thats the way that it goes

My time is gone I know
Your time may come your time may go
You may look me in the eye and tell me just what you see there

Some things just dont seem real until you face your demons
Think long and hard bout what youd say to me
Ive come to realize that you are no better
Than all the thousand other wannabes
I know you want me gone and I dont want to be here
At least in this regard we do agree
