ROBERTA FLACK
"And So It Goes"
(Maya Angelou / Roberta Flack / Barry Miles)

[Intro:]
Ooh, uh-huh

We ran into her just by chance
I saw it in a single glance
My oldest friend, your new romance
Must I remember?
You couldn't run, she couldn't hide
She dropped her eyes, you turned aside
You didn't want to hurt my pride
But you knew that

[Chorus:]
Love is a rush of wild wind
The scent of a summer rose
A whistle blowing on a distant track
And when it goes, it goes

I know that tale, I've heard it told
How bruises reach down to the soul
A love once warm turns icy cold
And I know that

[Chorus:]
Love is a rush of wild wind
The scent of a summer rose
A whistle blowing on a distant track
And when it goes, it goes

[Bridge:]
Take your heart where it longs to be
I won't bind you to a memory
I know if I wait, it will happen to me, uh-huh

[Instrumental break]

Ooh, yeah, yeah
(Remember)

[Chorus:]
Love is a rush of wild wind
The scent of a summer rose
A whistle blowing on a distant track
And when it goes, it goes
Love is a rush of wild wind
The scent of a summer rose
A whistle blowing on a distant track
When it goes, it goes
Love is a rush of wild wind
The scent of a summer rose
Whistle blowing on a distant track
And when it goes, it goes
Love is a rush of wild wind
