The Way It's Always Been

歌詞

They shut down the golden Sahara hotel Jessica says it won't be long 'til they blow it all to hell She's standing in the front yard, cut-offs and skin Me and her brother, we've been friends since I can't remember when And ain't that the way it's always been Everybody's sitting 'round waiting for the Son to come again A shift at the chemical plant, a white wedding dress I wake up every morning and I wonder if I'm gonna pass the test Just trying to live up to what she's got in mind Sometimes the pressure's so heavy, I feel like leaving it all behind me And ain't that the way it's always been Laying low just long enough for the dust to settle down The black and the white, the thick and the thin And hoping that he's really got the power to save us from these sins Everybody's sitting around waiting for the Son to come again I took a long walk yesterday (Yesterday) To a field where I used to play I saw myself corner of my mind I was 12 years old and blind To the big wheel and the grind And ain't that the way that it's always been Standing at the waters edge waiting for the fog to clear Tackle or touch, you sink or you swim And hoping that he's really got the power to save us from these sins Everybody's sitting around waiting for the Son to come again Waiting for the Son, to come again
