《Not The Way It Is》歌词

[00:00:00] Not The Way It Is - The Grapes Of Wrath

[00:00:08] I should write her a letter

[00:00:10] I suppose I should write her a letter

[00:00:13] What the hell

[00:00:14] What the hell will I tell her

[00:00:16] That she would want to hear

[00:00:19] But that she deserves to hear

[00:00:21] And I end up protesting what she can bear

[00:00:26] Do I come up with a reason

[00:00:29] Or am I inventing a reason

[00:00:32] Something with so many pieces

[00:00:34] That the only thing that's clear

[00:00:37] If there's anything that's clear

[00:00:40] Is whatever was is no longer here

[00:00:45] Wait until what I should say

[00:00:48] And maybe go away but that's not the way it is

[00:00:54] And I hope she'll understand

[00:00:57] Even though I know I may never see her again

[00:01:28] I could hope and I could wish and I could pray

[00:01:33] But that doesn't really change a thing

[00:01:41] And if I see her I don't know if I could watch

[00:01:46] And what there was turned into God knows what

[00:01:51] So so what about that letter

[00:01:56] Not that it could make anything better

[00:01:59] The fact is I feel like a coward

[00:02:02] Pretending what happened hadn't

[00:02:05] And nothing ever would despite the fact it did

[00:02:10] Could it be erased without rubbing it in her face

[00:02:15] Wait until what I should say

[00:02:18] Would maybe go away but that's not the way it is

[00:02:24] And I hope she'll understand

[00:02:27] Even though I know I may never see her again
