Lyrics

Nature of Things

I never knew love took so much energy
it's not just you and me
it's the nature of things
and I never knew you took so much of me
can't see the forest for the trees
but that's the nature of things

WHEN IT'S GOOD IT'S GOOD,
AND WHEN IT'S GONE, IT'S GONE FOR GOOD
THAT'S THE NATURE OF THINGS

I never realized there was so much compromise
when we agree we win a prize
and that's the nature of things
But most of the time we end up taking turns
that's the way you learn
about the nature of things

I never dreamed I wouldn't miss your touch
at least not that much
Guess that's the nature of things
I never guessed I'd be my own best friend
Til it comes again
and that's the nature of things

I almost caught a fleeting glance
but I missed my chance
guess that's the nature of things
I almost felt two hearts entwining
but I've lost my timing
guess that's the nature of things
