that's how things go down

here i am

carrying the child of our sweet love

and you're far away

that's how things go down

but i want to see you again

though i've known

others in life who've made it on their own

i'm afraid

that's how things go down

but i want to see you again

hey

with each day that passes by

i pray that i will see you soon

and you will be here with me

to see the child being born

safe and sound

all i can do is wait and hope that you'll

be around

that's how things go down

i want to see you again

in the end

all i can do is wait and hope that you'll

be around

that's how things go down

i want to see you again

that's how things go down

i want to see you again

that's how things go down
