Lyrics

Baby, don't fight it I'm comin', baby (Na-na-now, na-na-now, na-na-now, na-na-now, na-na-now) Do you know how long a tree lives Or the reason it grows? You may ask me all these questions But darling, no one knows It should be clear, I really love you Don't ask me why, I just do Do you ask the Lord, who loves you? Why He paints the sky clear blue? It's the way, (it's the way, it's the way nature planned it) We were meant, (we were meant, we were meant to) stay together It's just the way, (it's the way, it's the way) nature planned it, oh Don't ask me how long I'll love you When you're gone, my heart aches I'll never, never leave you Girl, all my life, for you, I'd wait 'cause it's the way (It's the way, it's the way) nature planned it We were meant, (we were meant, we were meant to) stay together, ooh-hoo-ooh It's the way, baby, (it's the way, it's the way) nature planned it, girl Ooh, don't fight it, baby I'm coming, girl (Na-na-now, na-na-now, na-na-now, na-na-now, na-na-now) ooh It should be clear, I really love you Don't ask me why, I just do 'cause it's the way, baby (It's the way, it's the way) Mother Nature planned it Like the stars and the sky and the beautiful heaven, ooh (It's the way, it's the way nature planned it) It's the way nature planned it, baby (We were meant, we were meant to stay together) Oh-oh, yeah Do you know why it rains? (It's the way, it's the way nature planned it) Something no one can explain (It's the way, it's the way nature planned it) ooh-ooh We were meant, we were meant to stay together Ooh, why does a flower grow? (It's the way, it's the way nature planned it) Why does the river flow? (It's the way, it's the way nature planned it) We were meant, we were meant We were meant (we were meant, we were meant to) stay together, ooh Why does it rain? (It's the way, it's the way nature planned it) Why do I feel this thing? (It's the way, it's the way nature planned it)
