You know she always seems to be there When I stumbled
And when mountains got too steep for me to climb
And it tears me up to think I never touched her
'Cause all it would have taken was some time
Ain't that just the way that life goes Down, down, down, down Moving way too fast or much too slow
I'm getting up, getting high, getting down Getting no, no, nowhere But not getting into someone I should know
Now she's in another place and I can't reach her
And I feel as though I'm guilty of a crime
I took all she had to give and gave her nothing
And all it would have taken was some time
Ain't that just the way that life goes Down, down, down, down Moving way too fast or much too slow
I'm getting up, getting high, getting down Getting no, no, nowhere But not getting into someone I should know
Ain't that just the way that life goes down
I'm getting up, I getting high
Ain't that just the way that life goes Down, down, down, down Moving way too fast or much too slow
I'm getting up, getting high, getting down Getting no, no, nowhere
I'm getting up, getting high, getting down Getting no, no, nowhere
I'm getting up, getting high, getting down Getting no, no, nowhere
I'm getting up, getting high, getting down Getting no, no, nowhere
Aren't that just the way that life goes Down,
Moving way too fast or much too slow
