《The Way I Should》歌词

时长： 04:26

A cold wind against my shoulder woke me up in the middle of the night[00:00:21]

An Autumn leaf was scraping against my window[00:00:32]

Like it was trying hard to get inside[00:00:36]

And then a ghost that I had met before he kept me up 'til dawn[00:00:42]

And everything I thought was right was suddenly all wrong[00:00:48]

He said "Your score is looking pretty bad"[00:00:53]

And then he asked me what it was that I had to show[00:00:55]

So I went running down a list of things[00:01:03]

Some were real but on some of them I lied[00:01:06]

'Cause I felt I had to justify each breath that I'd been breathing in this life[00:01:14]

Then I realized I was playing into someone else's rules [00:01:20]

Trying to keep my score up in a game I did not choose[00:01:28]

Then I looked that ghost straight in the eye[00:01:35]

And said "You'd better not be coming back by again"[00:01:41]

And it's true that I don't work near as hard[00:01:43]

As you tell me that I'm supposed to[00:01:50]

I don't run as fast as I could[00:01:52]

But I live just the way I want to[00:01:56]

And that's the way I should[00:02:01]

October's leaves were dancing 'round[00:02:02]

Like angels dressed in robes of Red and Gold[00:02:29]

But November's come and gone now[00:02:38]

And they're lying in the gutter out along the road[00:02:43]

They're gonna make their way out to the ditch or someday to the sea [00:02:50]

They'll get to where they're going without the help of you or me[00:02:54]

And if each life is just a grain of sand[00:02:59]

I'm telling you man this grain of sand is mine[00:03:03]

And it's true that I don't work near as hard[00:03:11]

As you tell me that I'm supposed to[00:03:17]

I don't run as fast as I could[00:03:21]

But I live just the way I want to[00:03:23]

And that's the way I should[00:03:25]

But I live just the way I want to[00:03:31]

And that's the way I should[00:03:35]
