Sometimes It Be That Way (Bonus Track, Live)
Jewel · This Way [2001]
(thank you)
knight with it's shattered teeth attempt to speak
my pen's present
but courage left via the sink
and I'm sorry I snuck up on you from behind
sorry not all my love letters did rhyme
and I'm sorry that jesus died for my sins
and I swear to God, it won't happen again
And I'm sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway
oh well
sometimes it be that way
Romeo was a very nice man
he said jewel i don't think you quite understand
and I'm sorry if you have to explain it like this
sorry i was a point you were destined to miss
and I'm sorry i spoke to you irreverently
down in the hallow by the old olive tree
and I'm sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day
oh well
sometimes it be that way
i said oh well i got nothing left to sell
this love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
i was bound to find out that you didn't care
said oh well
sometimes it be that way yea
and Aphrodite with her neon lamp
kissed Neptune they put her face on a stamp
and I'm sorry i used it to mail a letter to you
sorry I'm glue and the rest bounces off of you
I'm sorry not even this jet's metal wings
could get across these simple things
and I'm sorry if i ever sang your name in vain
oh well
sometimes it be that way
i said oh well i got nothing left to sell
this love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
i was bound to find out that you didn't care
said oh well
sometimes it be that way yea
now flame licks the air with its silver tongue
night has many hands
but i have just one
and I'm sorry i walked in on you unexpectedly
sorry i didn't serve you both chamomile tea
and I'm sorry i didn't always have a match
that could start a fire big enough for your heart to catch
and I'm sorry if my swerve tempted you sway
oh well
sometimes it be that way
i said oh well i got nothing left to sell
this love was a bell that rang unheard in the air
i was bound to find out that you didn't care
i said oh well
sometimes it be that way
oh well
sometimes it be that way
