The Way the World Works
Give me just a little break
Ain't no more that I can take
I am asking for the planets to align.
Calling on the universe
Maybe once just put me first
Give me what I need
Or give a little sign
Nothing plays out like it should
Nothing Does me any good
Cause I'm missing you
And it's making me cry
Oh I know it's turning
Inside I'm burning and
[Chorus]
I'm so tired of the way the world works
I'm so tired of the way the world works
They conspire, trying to keep us apart
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
I don't mind a little pain
But enough's enough
Does the heart grow fonder (yes)
Will I wait here on ya (yes)
Baby how much longer
Oh I know It's turning
All I am learning is
[Chorus]
There's so much in life that 's undecided
There's so much trouble that's uninvited
And only so much you can control
What are the forces that try and tease us
I wish the forces would just release us
I haven't seen you in forever ever baby
'Gimme just a little break
Ain't no more that I can take
Tryin' to keep us apart
