The Way it's meant to be


Hello, my dear old friend
I talk to you again
After all these years
Tell me what we're doing here
Are we dead or are we still alive
Say it loud, say it clear
Is there no reason for my fear
Are we really satisfied

Your face is looking good
'Cause you did everything you said you would
But if you had the chance
Would you do it all again
Or is this the greatest lie on earth
Say it now, say it loud
Is there a reason to be proud
The passing days what are they worth

Is this the way it's meant to be
Empty hearts and broken dreams
Is this our life and is this me
What have I lost to feel so weak
It's been a long way down

I touched forbidden ground
And hidden memories
Make me cry and make me scream
For the paradise so long away
And is she really still the one
The heroine of all my songs
Can I face another day

Is this the way it's meant to be
Broken promises are all I see
Now there is you and here is me
Untold crimes and misery

Long ago, so long away
It used to be so good
Turn back time Oh, how I wish I could

Hello, my sweet young friend
I talk to you again
Now, can I give you some advice
Just the one thing you must try
To find your own way in the end
Start a new life with the blue-eyed witch
Just to find out she's a bitch
But at least you've got a friend
