The Way Life´s Meant To Be ( Time)
GWell, I came a long way to be here today
And I left you so long on this Cavenue
And Dhere I stand in the strangest land
Not knowing what to Gsay or do
GAs I gaze around at these strangers in town
I guess the only stranger is Cme
And I Dwonder (yes, I wonder)
Yes, I wonder (oh, I wonder)
Is this the way life's meant to Gbe?
Although it's only a day since I was taken away
And left standing here looking in wonder
(It's your life, it's your life)
Ah, the ground at my feet, maybe it's just the old street
But everything that I know lies under
(It's your life, it's your life)
And when I see what they've done
To this place that was home
Shame is all that I feel
Oh, and I wonder (oh, I wonder)
Yes, I wonder (wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder)
Is this the way life's meant to be?
CToo late, too Dlate to cry the GpeoBple Emisay
CToo late for Dyou, too late for Gme
CYou've come so Dfar, now you know GeveryF#mithing my Emifriend
ALook and see the wonders of our Cworld...
G......C......
And I Dwonder (oh, I wonder)
Yes, I wonder (yes, I wonder)
Is this the way life's meant to Gbe?
As I wander around this wreck of a town
Where people never speak aloud
With its ivory towers and its plastic flowers
I wish I was back in 1981
Just to see your face instead of this place
Now I know what you mean to me
And I wonder (oh, I wonder)
Yes, I wonder (yes, I wonder)
Is this the way life's meant to be?
And I wonder (oh, I wonder)
Yes, I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder
Is this the way life's meant to be?
Ooohh, I wonder
Oh, I wonder, wonder, wonder
Is this the way life's meant to be?
Oh, is this the way life's meant to be?
Mmmmm, is this the way life's meant to be?
I wanna know now
Is this the way life's meant to be?
