That's How It Goes

When I woke up this morning
 I saw the sun was shining in my door
 I opened up my eyes and saw
 I did not have to worry anymore
 I'm going to let a little secret slip
 It's not the destination, it's the trip
 It's the moss you gather while you roll
 Don't you know, that's how it goes
 You've got to stop, look and listen
 The message that you're getting is clear
 You can't wait for Christmas
 It's Christmas every day of the year
 So count your blessings one by one
 Welcome every rising sun
 'Cause pretty soon your race is run
 Don't you know, that's how it goes
 I help you and you help me
 That's the way the world should be
 Tit for tat and give and take
 Just be good for goodness sake
 I'll pick you up if you should fall
 It works both ways if it works at all
 Hold in your heart the people you love
 Always thank the powers above
 Everyone deserves a share
 So keep your promise, fair is fair
 So gather 'round me people
 And help me while I sing this song
 I'd rather have you with me
 Together as we travel along
 It's the feeling of the wind in your face
 The sound of the music they play
 The friends you make along the way
 Don't you know, that's how it goes
 Don't you know, that's how it goes
 Just so you know, that's how it goes
