this is not the way it goes- lyrics



this is not the way it goes I said

this is not the way I planned

how could you disobay

without your trust where do I stand?

what does it take to make you believe?



how many minutes you wasted?

when will your life just get back to change

now there was truly something amazing between uus

but how do we find it all again?



this is not the way it goes I said

this is not the way I planned?

how could you disobay

without your trust where would I stand?

what does it take to make you believe??



your words cant sound the same as I

please be different

how many times have you broken my heart?

when will you wake up and realise what you did?



this is not the way it goes?

I won;t let you distroy my life time

I honestly Don't know how to live

without You but this is how it's gonna have to be!



This is not the way it goes I said

this is not the I planned?

how could you disaobay ?

without your turst where would I stand??

what does it take to make you believe?



just say that word and maybe things could change.
