Ain't That Just The Way Lyrics

He was a very special warm and gentle person
who put music in the world and spoke in rhyme
and it hurts me that i never really knew him
'cause all it would have taken was some time

you know he allways seemed to be there whan i stumbled
and when the mountains got to steep for me to climb
and it tears me up to think i never touched him
'cause all it would have taken was some time

ain't that just the way that life goes down, down, down, down
moving way to fast on much to slow
i'm getting up, getting high, getting down, get no no nowhere
not getting into someone i should know

now he's in an other place and i can't reach him
and i feel as though i'm guilty for a crime
i took all he had to give and gave him nothing
and all it would have taken was some time

ain't that just the way,...
