Jewel - Sometimes It Be That Way

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
