Lyrics
Rock-scissors-paper and tick-tack-toe
Make big plans and set lofty goals
That lead you to a fork in the road
Into the uncertain and the unknown
That's how it goes, between the highs and lows Yeah, that's how it goes, between the highs and lows
The highest highs are worth the lowest lows
Every scar we wear is how we learn and grow Yearning for more than a pot of gold
Maybe happiness lies, between the highs and lows
Slippin' and tripin', and running in place
Always hoping to fall with grace
As we try to bend and mold our fate
Working so hard to make the grade
That's how it goes, between the highs and lows Yeah, that's how it goes, between the highs and lows
The highest highs are worth the lowest lows
Every scar we wear is how we learn and grow Yearning for more than a pot of gold
Maybe happiness lies, between the highs and lows
BRIDGE:
Savor joy, and it's bittersweet taste
Bask in the sadness of heartbreak
Embrace each moment of love and pain Without loss there is no gain
9 to 5, and a 401k
Save those pennies for a rainy day
Put dreams on hold, they can wait
Seal them way with a postdate
That's how it goes, between the highs and lows Yeah, that's how it goes, between the highs and lows
The highest highs are worth the lowest lows
Every scar we wear is how we learn and grow Yearning for more than a pot of gold
Maybe happiness lies, between the highs and lows
