Do you remember once upon a time When you were mine The stars above were bright and new I pulled them down for you Just when I fell in love again You said that all good things must end Baby, that's just the way it is Baby Baby, that's just the way it is Baby I never had a head for solitaire It's so unfair That I'd should have my chance and lose Feel like I've been used to help you Through another night You spelled in out in black and white Baby, that's just the way it is Baby Baby, that's just the way it is Baby The tides that had once carried you away They bring you back again today Time has washed away my pain You'll find that things have changed And disappeared without a trace You can't get back what you've erased And I say Baby, that's just the way it is Baby That's just the way it is Baby, that's just the way it is Baby That's just the way it is Baby, that's just the way it is Baby Baby, that's just the way it is Baby Baby, that's just the way it is Baby Baby, that's just the way it is Baby Baby, that's just the way it is Baby Baby, that's just the way it is Baby
