And So It Goes

Roberta Flack · Love Songs [1993]

We ran into her just by chance;

I saw it in a single glance

My oldest friend,

Your new romance, must I remember?



You couldn't run;

She couldn't hide

She dropped her eyes,

You turned aside

You didn't want to hurt my pride,

But you knew that



Love is a Rush of Wild Wind;

The Scent of a Summer Rose

A whistle blowing on a distant track and when it goes, it goes



I know that tale I've heard it told

How bruises reach down to the soul

A love once warm, turns icy cold

And I know that



Love is a Rush of Wild Wind;

The scent of a Summer Rose

A whistle blowing on a distant track

and when it goes, it goes



Take your heart where it longs to be

I won't bind you to a memory

I know if I wait, it will happen to me oh ho"
