Written:Robin Zander/Rick Nielsen It's the way of the world Remember-you were in school and I followed you home Remember-didn't think I xisted, but we're comin' together right now I've been runnin; I've been hidin' It's the way of the world You say it's over but the world keeps turnin' round Remember-I knew I'd be good for you, no one better Remember-Really meant what I said, wanna be your lover right now I've been runnin; I've been hidin' It's the way of the world You say it's over but the world keeps turnin' round World goes 'round Life goes on and on and on You say it's over, but the world keeps turnin' round It's the way of the world Remember-you were at work and then Friday at five I Remember-felt like a pwan was I dead or alive? Remember-thought no one could hear me, I was goin' insane Remember-it was a real fine line now you've changed my life around I've been runnin; I've been hidin' It's the way of the world You say it's over but the world keeps turnin' round
