[00:12.22]He was a very special, warm and gentle person
[00:17.87]Who put the music in the world and spoke in rhyme
[00:23.46]And it hurts me that I never really knew him
[00:28.83]Cause all it would have taken was some time
[00:34.44]You know he always seems to be there when I stumbled
[00:39.68]And when mountains got too steep for me to climb
[00:45.61]And it tears me up to think I never touched him
[00:50.80]Cause all it would have taken was some time
[00:56.49](Oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah)
[00:56.67]Ain't that just the way that life goes
[00:59.70]Down, down, down, down?
[01:02.30]Movin' way too fast or much too slow
[01:07.95]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[01:10.40]Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[01:13.68] Not gettin' into someone I should know
[01:18.84]Now he's in another place and I can't reach him
[01:23.84]And I feel, as though I'm guilty of a crime
[01:29.45]I took all he had to give and gave him nothin'
[01:34.82]And all it would have taken was some time
[01:40.31](Oh, yeah, yeah)
[01:40.90]Ain't that just the way that life goes
[01:43.80]Down, down, down, down?
[01:46.20]Movin' way too fast or much too slow
[01:52.08]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[01:54.74]Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[01:57.55]But not gettin' into someone I should know
[02:03.40]Ain't that just the way that life goes
[02:06.25]Down, down, down, down?
[02:08.92]Movin' way too fast or much too slow
[02:13.80]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[02:16.45]Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[02:19.66]Not gettin' into someone I should know
[02:25.20]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[02:27.86] Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[02:30.71]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[02:33.43]Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[02:36.23]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[02:38.60]Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[02:41.69]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[02:44.82]Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[02:47.49]Ain't that just the way that life goes
[02:50.30]Down, down, down, down?
[02:52.60]Movin' way too fast or much too slow
[02:58.30]I'm gettin' up, gettin' high, gettin' down
[03:01.04]Gettin' no, no, nowhere
[03:03.54]Not gettin' into someone I should know
[03:09.34]Ain't that just the way that life goes
