MADELEINE PEYROUX
"The Way Of All Things"

I never thought I would
Never wanted to
Never learned how
As others do
It was me who'd sigh
Was me who's ask
And I'm guessing me
Who writes this [?]

Maybe that is the way of all things
The way that a glance carries romance
On the quiet of strings
The way that you dance
The way that you sing
Maybe that is the way of all things

It's someone else's night
It's someone else's air
Someone else's right
Someone else's prayer
I hear a whisper close
Pull myself away
And when I speak a name
I thought I'd never say

Maybe that is the way
Of all things
They way that all hopes
Play their jokes
And have their sting
And the way that you dance
The way that you sing
Maybe that is the way of all things

Whatever way all things must go
Maybe better we never know
Maybe that is the way
Of all things
The way that our plans fake [?]
So faithfully bring
It's the way that you dance
The way that you sing
Maybe that is the way of all things
