Recorded in one live take in 2014 and written in 2012 at my house in Enfield, NH while thinking about a relationship I observed between two other people. This song is blunt, and to the point and was meant to be a slow (part two) of "Not A Love Song". I'm not always this pessimistic about relationships, but I think you can only do so much before the other person makes a decision you have to live with and move on from. Two people can build a whole life together and then watch their trails diverge. Its just the way it goes sometimes.
lyrics
Verse1: I remember all the moments of us, the good and bad photography. Hanging on the wall collecting the dust, that symbolizes you and me.
I can’t believe that all of this is the past,
And in future times we are apart.
Its like what they say if you don’t build it won’t last,
Starts with the structure of our hearts.
Chorus: I say woah, that’s the way, that's the way, that's the way that it goes, you give love and then you go.
Verse2: I never thought that I was ever to blame, but you made me feel like I was wrong. We pick and choose and change our mind in this game and I know that it won't take long.
'Cause it makes me sick to think of you with another,
Man you’ve got some kinda nerve,
And here we stand opposite of each other,
do what we can to make it hurt.
Chorus: I say woah, that’s the way, that's the way, that's the way that it goes, you give love and then you go.
