Jewel - Sometimes It Be That Way lyrics

Night with its shattered teeth attempts to speak

My pen is present but courage left via the sink

And I`m sorry I snuck up on you from behind

Sorry not all my love letters did rhyme

And I`m sorry that Jesus died for my sins

And I swear to God it won`t happen again

And I`m sorry if it was my swerve that tempted you to sway

Oh well, sometimes it be that way

And Romeo was a very nice man

He said, "Jewel, I don`t think you quite understand"

And I`m sorry if you had to explain it like this

Sorry I was a point you were destined to miss

And I`m sorry I spoke to you irreverently

Down in the hollow by the old olive tree

And I`m sorry if my heart breaking ruined your day

Oh well, sometimes it be that way

CHORUS

I said, "Oh well, I got nothing left to sell"

This love was a bell that rang unheard in the air

I was bound to find out that you didn`t care

Oh well, sometimes it be that way

And Aphrodite with her neon lamp

Kissed Neptune, they put her face on a stamp

And I`m sorry I used it to mail a letter to you

Sorry I`m glue and the rest bounces off of you

And I`m sorry not even this jet`s metal wings

Could get across these simple things

And I`m sorry if I ever sang your name in vain

Oh well, sometimes it be that way

CHORUS

Now flame licks the air with its silver tongue

Night has many hands but I have just one

And I`m sorry I walked in on you unexpectedly

I`m sorry I never served you chamomile tea

And I`m sorry I didn`t always have a match

That could start a fire big enough for your heart to catch

And I`m sorry if it was my heart breaking that ruined your day

Oh well, sometimes it be that way

Oh well, sometimes it be that way
