"Not Everybody Goes (That's Life)" lyrics

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
When we were young I pictured us
As something that I won't give up
But now I think it's time to walk away
I tried to show you what real love
Could be but you don't wanna trust
I think it's hurting more for me to stay

I guess not everybody goes
Where you're going
Sometimes we're holding
Just a little too tight
To [?] of our control
Gotta let you go, babe
Everybody knows it
And baby, that's life

I guess you're not going
The same way that you said you were
And now I don't know if
If you meant any of your words
When you told me we share the same dream and
When you said that you care for my feelings
Baby, say it wasn't all pretend
What's crazy is that I'd do it over all again
And I, I be coming right back to this place
Watching you go the other way
Wondering how to make you stay
I tried your way but you ain't never turned around
I watched our bridge go burning down
Now there's no way to return now
Return to me

I guess not everybody goes
Where you're going
Sometimes we're holding
Just a little too tight
To [?] of our control
Gotta let you go, babe
Everybody knows it
And baby, that's life

I don't know what's worse
Holding on to memories or letting them fade
'Cause even though it hurts
I can't imagine throwing them all away
I've cried every night
Ever since you left from my side
But I can't do this, baby, I'm tired
Thinking of you
And I've heard many times
People say "out of sight's out of mind"
Then I don't know why you ain't out of mine
And I'm thinking of you

When we were young I pictured us
As something that I can't give up
But now I think it's time to walk away
And I tried to show you what real love
Could be but you don't wanna trust
I think it's hurting more for me to stay

I guess not everybody goes
Where you're going
Sometimes we're holding
Just a little too tight
To [?] of our control
Gotta let you go, babe
Everybody knows it
And baby, that's life
