The Way

Hey baby I called to say I gave up that narcotic But ever since I quit I ain't got much to say And I found out that loving a man is overrated 'Cause she's been nicer to me than you've been all day I think of all I've lost and all I gave away And I bang my head and tears fall down my face I'd like to make it up to all of you that I've disappointed But forgive me love if I don't show up I'm looking for the way To the sky, to the rainbows Baby to them pearly gates (the way) To the mountaintop to my superhuman stage (the way) And when I get there will you be there? (The way) Oh baby, will you be there? I think of all the mistakes that I've made The times I went when I wish I had stayed Just like Frank I can truly say That I did it my way, did it my way (the way) I want it, I want it (the way) I want it, I want it And all the people here they look so happy and successful Maybe I could be that way if only I knew (the way) Gonna reside in my dreams, that's where I'll make it Where the memory of me is never faded And I wake up in a nightmare 'Cause I, I still ain't satisfied Hey, the way To the sky, take me to them pearly gates To the mountaintop, to my superhuman stage To the rainbows baby, to the love we make, hey yeah (The way) To my one day, to my someday, yeah, yeah, yeah (the way) To the big old smile, to the big smile on my face So happy, successful Yeah maybe after that, I I'll have (the way) Baby, to the love we make And will you be there while I get there By my side, baby? Baby, take my hand Yeah, yeah, oh And show me the way I want it, I want it (the way) I want it Take my hand and show me (the way) All the people here they look so happy and successful Maybe I could be that way if only I knew All the people here they look so happy and successful Maybe I could be that way if only I knew (And all the people here they look so happy and successful)
