Lyrics
So It Goes
© Marc Alan Abrams
There was a time when everything we had would turn to gold,
Then you were gone, and I was left with just my head to hold,
I?ll think about you now and then,
When we were lovers and we were friends,
And I thought friendships would never end,
But so it goes.
It?s been a while, but memories of you are coming back to me,
I loved your smile, and everything about you was the world to me,
How could something that was so rare,
Become so distant with such despair,
We had a special love affair,
But so it goes.
It only goes to show what we both know,
That certain things in life that we depend on can grow cold,
And I depended on you being there when things around me started to unfold.
I?ve got to go; it was funny running into you this way.
It seems so strange, but I really don?t have very much to say.
But I?ll keep you in the back of my mind,
Until a very very special time,
I?ll think about when you were mine,
And so it goes.
And so it??goes.
