The Way it Goes

If there's ever anything that I can do
To make you realize I love you
Just tell it to me straight
Cause you know I just can't wait another day
If there's ever anything that I can be
To show you what you mean to me
Just whisper in my ear
And I'll make it all so clear
Don't delay, don't delay
Cause even if the past
Holds nothing for the future
This creature of habit
Has no doubt about the way it goes
And goodness knows it's wrong before it's right
Turn away
And don't you look behind
Cause nothing back there matters
And rather, disaster isn't far from past
So sit up tall, and after all
It's only dark before it's light
So if there's ever anything that I can say
To make you mine, if for a day
Just give to me a sign
And I'll lay it on the line
Straight away, don't delay
Cause even if the past
Holds nothing for the future
This creature of habit
Has no doubt about the way it goes
And goodness knows it's wrong before it's right
Turn away
And don't you look behind
Cause nothing back there matters
And rather, disaster isn't far from past
So sit up tall, and after all
It's only dark before it's light
So if there's ever anything that I can do
To make you realize I love you
Just tell it to me straight
Cause you know I just can't wait another day
If there's ever anything that I can be
To show you what you mean to me
Just whisper in my ear
And I'll make it all so clear
Now, before you disappear
Just whisper in my ear
