The Way Life's Meant To Be
Electric Light Orchestra Song Lyrics
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 at these strangers in town I guess the only stranger is me And I wonder (yes, I wonder) Yes, I wonder (oh, 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 (It's your life, it's your life) Ah, the ground at my feet, maybe it's just the old street But everything that I know lies under (It's your life, it's your life) And when I see what they've done To this place that was home Shame is all that I feel Oh, and I wonder (oh, I wonder) Yes, I wonder (wonder, wonder, wonder, 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 Look and see the wonders of our world... And I wonder (oh, I wonder) Yes, I wonder (yes, I wonder) Is this the way life's meant to be? As I wander around this wreck of a town Where people never speak aloud With its ivory towers and its 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 me And I wonder (oh, I wonder) Yes, I wonder (yes, I wonder) Is this the way life's meant to be? And I wonder (oh, I wonder) Yes, I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder Is this the way life's meant to be? Ooohh, I wonder Oh, I wonder, wonder, wonder Is this the way life's meant to be? Oh, is this the way life's meant to be? Mmmmm, is this the way life's meant to be? I wanna know now Is this the way life's meant to be? |
