And So It Goes

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
In every heart, there is a roomA sanctuary safe and strongTo heal the wounds from lovers pastUntil a new one comes alongI spoke to you in cautious tonesYou answered me with no pretenseAnd still I feel I said too muchMy silence is my self-defenseAnd every time I've held a roseIt seems I only felt the thornsAnd so it goes, and so it goesAnd so will you soon, I supposeBut if my silence made you leaveThen that would be my worst mistakeSo I will share this room with youAnd you can have this heart to breakAnd this is why my eyes are closedIt's just as well for all I've seenAnd so it goes, and so it goesAnd you're the only one who knowsSo I would choose to be with youThat's if the choices were mine to makeBut you can make decisions, tooAnd you can have this heart to breakAnd so it goes, and so it goesAnd you're the only one who knows
