This Is How It Goes
I knew that I
Was not the type of guy that you usually see, but
I thought that we
Were like pieces of a puzzle that fit so perfectly

I guess that I
Didn’t see what was coming, what our future would be
But seeing you here tonight
It’s got me thinking

It was magic, it was perfect
It was everything I thought that love was supposed to be
But I knew that night
You broke my heart in a blink of an eye
You said goodbye

So this is how it goes
I’m standing in the corner
Acting like I have something better to do
But no, I’m pacing around trying to figure out how
To say “damn I love you”
But we fought
And wе cried, and our love died
A fеw weeks ago
Can you push that aside?
Cause oh, I just miss you so much now
Let’s try this one more time
Now I’m here
At this party all alone, another face in the crowd, but
You’re standing there
Having the time of your life, like no one else is around

I wanna go
Up to you and talk to you there’s nothing else I’d rather do
But someone else comes back to you and calls you baby

We were happy, we were crazy
We were everything, that our true love was meant to be
But I just want you to know
That I’m sorry, would you give me a second try?

So this is how it goes
I’m standing in the corner
Acting like I have something better to do
But no, I’m pacing around trying to figure out how
To say “damn I love you”
But we fought
And we cried, and our love died
A few weeks ago
Can you push that aside?
Cause oh, I just miss you so much now
Let’s try this one more time
I take a deep breath
And walk across the room
Need you to see me
Need you to know the truth
Just about how much I love you so
But you’re wrapped up in someone else’s arms
Your constellation’s found a few new stars
We’re just burned out tonight
I see you happy, for the first time in a while
And I turn back around
And I leave this party without making a sound

So this is how it goes
I’m standing on the corner
Thinking ‘bout all I would’ve said to you
But no, we’re over now, and I want you to know
That I’ll always love you
But we fought
And we cried, and our love died
A few weeks ago
Time to push that aside
Cause oh, I know you’re happy now
It’s time to say goodbye
Glad I saw you one last time
One last time
I’ll miss your brown eyes
The way you smile
The dancing in the dark
I won’t forget the way
You looked that day
I said “I love you” for the very first time
But we cried, our love died
I swear I tried
But this is how it goes
This is how it goes
