The Way It Is lyrics

In the silence of the morning
Comes a burnin' yellow light
A brand new day is dawnin'
And nothin' felt so right

Inside I feel the spirit
As I face and turn the sun
And you were nowhere near it
Now my life has just begun

I don't want you, I don't want you
I don't want you anyway
And I could never, I could never
Hurt you the way that you hurt me

And I don't understand
How could anyone have the right

To try and take my freedom
I don't want you, I don't want you
I don't want you anyway

Push your boat out into the water
As the tide comes rushing out
Your mother's only daughter
