Once again I reach the end of my rope
And hopelessly I bend
My bad knee and bow my hard head down
And I whisper, Father, what now?
And wouldn't you like to know
But honey that's the only way to grow
Reachin' in the dark until you see a spark
So it goes, so it goes
Another fork stands in the course
The flood of love or the fear of remorse
A day will dawn when both paths are gone
And I wonder which one we'll be on
And wouldn't you like to know
But sadly that's the only way to grow
All you need to understand, is sad don't mean bad
So it goes so it goes
I ain't scared by lack of flair
It just wouldn't be real without the care
I know what you mean by in love
And it just ain't what I'm thinkin' of
And wouldn't you like to know?
But baby that's the only way to grow
If on the way out of the shell, you cut yourself, well
So it goes, so it goes
If on the way out of the shell, you cut yourself, well
So it goes, so it goes
