Billy Joel Lyrics
Song:

And So It Goes

Album:

Billy Joel - Greatest Hits Vol. 3" by Billy Joel

Song Text:

In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and
strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes
along

I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no
pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self
defense

And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the
thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I
suppose

But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst
mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to
break

And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all
I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who
knows

So I would choose to be with you
That's if the choice were mine
to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to
break

And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
