"This Is How It Goes"


This is how it Goes
you'll get angry at yourself
and think you can think of something else
and I'll hear the clanging of the bells
'cause I can't stop you baby

'cause I don't have the bribery in place
no bright shiny surface to my face
so I walk .. near the marketplace
with what I'm selling lately
'cause this is how it goes

'cause it's all about trust
'cause it's all about shame
and whatever they want
don't tell them your name

Instrumental:

this is how it goes
one more failure to ...
with so many how could I object
and you ... expect
well I can't tell you baby
this is how it goes

cause it's all about trust
cause it's all about shame
and whatever they want
don't tell them your name

so I'll try to hold on
while you try to let it go
... it's gone
but baby I'll know
baby I'll know
baby I'll know
baby I'll know
