The Way It Goes

A forgotten whisper screams at me now
So that i don't forget how
To sit like a child on my mother's knee
How dare that child be me

And its trot trot to Boston
And its trot trot to Lynn
And trot all the way home again
But don't let me fall in

Cause I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs (legs)

So race me up the loft
Up the ladder until i get lost
And let you be an arms length away
So you can wake me and tell me of the day

And its trot trot to Boston
And its trot trot to Lynn
And trot all the way home again
But don't let me fall in

Cause I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs (legs)

So where are you going did you fallow me?
And how could you see so well? So well
You were helpless like a dove at bay
But what did you say
When he pulled it out
Did you shout, did you shout
O did you shout oh

Cause I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs
I'm slipping through your legs (legs)

So where are you going?
Did you fallow me?
And how could you see so well? , So well
You were helpless like a dove at bay
But what did you say when he pulled it out
Did you shout, did you shout, did you shout oh

And the way it goes, and I cant remember
And the way it goes, and I cant remember
And the way it goes, and I cant remember
And the way it goes, and I cant remember
And the way it goes, and I cant remember
And the way it goes, and I cant remember
