THE WAY LIFE'S MEANT TO BE
TEXT : JEFF LYNNE
MUSIK : JEFF LYNNE
INTERPRET: ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA
--------------------------------------------------
Well i came a long way to be here today
and i left you so long on this avenue
and here i stand in the strangest land
not knowing what to say or do
as i gaze around a these strangers in town
i guess the only stranger is me
and i wonder yes i wonder is this
the way life's meant to be
--------------------------------------------------
Although it's only a day since i was taken away
and left standing here looking in wonder
the ground at my feet maybe
it's just the old street
but everything that i know lies under
and when i see what they've donc to this place
that was home
shame is all that i feel
and i wonder yes i wonder is this
the way life's meant to be
--------------------------------------------------
Too late too late to cry the people say
too late for you too late for me
you've come so far now you
know everything my friend
just look and see the wonders of our world
--------------------------------------------------
As I wander around this wreck of a town
where people never speak aloud
with it's ivory towers and it's plastic flowers
i wish i was back in 1981
just to see your face
instead of this place
now i know what you mean to be
and i wonder yes i wonder is this
the way life's meant to bee.
