Mama I fell in love with a criminal
Boy Blake Reigns stole my heart in Union Square
Mama you told me love was a miracle
So why do I keep feeling like nobody cares?
It's the only thing I know, fighting through the cold to find you
Looking for your light, the shadows always hide the truth
Lighting up the cold, smoke you see the smoke, I'm on fire
In a world filled of ghosts, I can only see a solid
I've been trying to find my way in this city
I don't even know myself anymore
But if I'm sure of one thing, I need you with me
Even if half the time we're at war
But that's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
Either way it goes
Father told me wonder by the river
You'll find glory and hurt within the flow
There's a pain here but it don't last forever
Gotta let it chill with your heart so it can grow
It's the only thing I know, fighting through the cold to find you
Looking for your light, the shadows always hide the truth
Lighting up the cold, smoke you see the smoke, I'm on fire
In a world filled of ghosts, I can only see a solid you
I've been trying to find my way in this city
I don't even know myself anymore
But if I'm sure of one thing, I need you with me
Even if half the time we're at war
But that's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes
Either way it goes
