This is how it is

This is how it goes

You come into this world alone

And travel down this road

You try to do the best you can

But there's no guarantees

So one day you'll be flying high

The next down on your knees.

[Chorus]

I guess were on our own

I know that's nothing new

Today is just a stepping stone

Along the avenue

Tomorrow I'll be coming home

I'll find a rendezvous

I'll run towards the great unknown

And drink the morning dew ohhhhh...

This is what's it's like

And how it is to choose

Were you stop along the way

And fix your worn out shoes

How to recognise a girl

Avoiding all her mates

Forget the things you thought you knew

You may as well again.

[Chorus]

I guess were on our own

I know that's nothing new

Today is just a stepping stone

Along the avenue

Tomorrow I'll be coming home

I'll find a rendezvous

I'll run towards the great unknown

And drink the morning dew ohhhhh...

This is how it goes, this is how it fairs

When all the world is falling down

And dragging at your hair

This is what they say

If you should ask them why

The world is in a backward spin

You fall, you live, you die.

[Chorus]

I guess were on our own

I know that's nothing new

Today is just a stepping stone

Along the avenue

Tomorrow I'll be coming home

I'll find a rendezvous

I'll run towards the great unknown

And drink the morning dew ohhhhh...

[Chorus]

I guess were on our own

I know that's nothing new

Today is just a stepping stone

Along the avenue

Tomorrow I'll be coming home

I'll find a rendezvous

I'll run towards the great unknown

And drink the morning dew ohhhhh...
