"A Way It Goes" lyrics

I could show you how he left me
Paint a picture, growing flowers for nobody
But I'd rather you see me thriving
Vining my way back up

I could say it's a leviathan of lonely
Hanging around the whole place haunting
Don't care if no one ever wants me again

Oh, you know, there's a way love goes
It goes away, away it goes
It just takes off and up and away love goes

I could tell you I felt like I was dying
Hugged my knees to my chest, crying
I couldn't stop
I rocked and rocked, while he just stood there and watched

I could show you a real shattering
A bird flown into a glass window collapsing
But I'd rather you see my flying
Happily ever after the aftermath

Oh, you know, there's a way love goes
It goes away, away it goes
It just takes off and up and away love goes

Spent a year looking inward and healing
Made some new friends, don't ask about the deep end
Even I couldn't believe it
When I felt my heart sprouting feathers and I caught myself dreaming again

Oh, oh, there's a way love goes
It goes away, away it goes
It just takes off and up and away love goes

Oh, oh, there's a way love goes
It goes away, away it goes
It just takes off and up and away love goes
