[Verse 1] Everybody knows That's the way it goes We just pretend It goes the other way But that's the way It's supposed to go [Verse 2] You think the world is turning Around your every thought One day you wake up and it most certainly is not And now you finally realize the cost If you pretend It goes the other way But that's the way It's supposed to go [Verse 3] It turns within a circle but it doesn't orbit you So every time it comes around you get a better view And the more you look the less you find you knew That it would go And go and go And go and go [Verse 4] But that's the way It's supposed to go We just pretend It goes the other way You think you'll understand it but you can't afford the cost Before you get to find yourself first you must be lost And then you finally realize the cost If you pretend It goes the other way But that's the way It's supposed to go [Verse 5] Just continue searching and you'll find A quiet wisdom there within your mind And if you're quiet quickly you have time Before it goes and goes and goes Before it goes [Verse 6] Cause that's the way It's supposed to go We just pretend It goes the other way We just pretend It goes the other way We just pretend It goes the other way We just pretend It goes the other way
