Today's been one of the harder days I've known
And I stand, alone
I wish with all my heart that you were there
But I know that's not fair, cause
You got your own life
And you're not in mine
And that's the way it should
That's the way it should
That's the way it should be
I hope that one day
I won't know your name
Cause that's the way it should
That's the way it should
That's the way it should be
For years I thought I had everything all right
I messed up, big time
And I know I can't take back all the things I did
So we're stuck like this
Well you, you've got your own life
And you're not in mine
And that's the way it should
That's the way it should
That's the way it should be
I hope that one day
I won't know your name
That's the way it should
That's the way it should
That's the way it should be
All of these faces blend together in the rain
I might have known you once, but never will again
You've got your own life
And you're not in mine
And that's the way it should
That's the way it should
That's the way it should be
I hope that one day
You won't know my name
Cause that's the way it should
That's the way it should
That's the way it should be
