The Way It Is

In the silence of the morning

Comes a burnin' yellow light

A brand new day is dawnin'

And nothin' felt so right



Inside i feel the spirit

As i face and turn the sun

And you were nowhere near it

Now my life has just begun



I don't want you, i don't want you

I don't want you anyway

And i could never, i could never

Hurt you the way that you hurt me



And i don't understand

How could anyone have the right

To try and take my freedom

I don't want you, i don't want you

I don't want you anyway



Push your boat out into the water

As the tide comes rushing out

Your mother's only daughter



Now there seems to be some doubt

As you walk across the wasteland

That you seem to be proud of

You lay shackled in your fortress

That you look down from above



I could never hurt you

I'm not that kind of man
