Lookin' in the mirror
and you don't look the same
Girls from your past
getting new last names
High school friends
burning out like their cigarette
Guess that's what happens the older you get
Start to wish
you could've been sixteen forever
'Cause you know your favourite band
ain't getting back together
And the nights
you don't remember are the nights
that you'll never forget
Guess that's what happens the older you get


Oh, that's just the way it goes, oh
And, oh, that's just the way it goes, oh


Lifе's goin' good, but you wonder what's after
'Cause dad's moving slowеr
and time's moving faster
You hug a little tighter
and you say the things you never said
Guess that's what happens
Sometimes the cancer goes away,
and sometimes it don't
So, now, when your mama calls,
you always pick up the phone
And you talk a little longer
'cause tomorrow is not a sure bet
Ooh-ooh, oh-oh


Oh, that's just the way it goes, oh
And, oh, that's just the way it goes, oh

(Ooh) Hey
Guess that's what happens the older you get
(Ooh) Oh, oh-oh


The house you grew up in is now gettin' sold
And a box full of memories is worth more than gold
You close your eyes one last time
in your childhood bed
Guess that's what happens,
what happens, oh
Home was a place, now home is a person
And you're lookin' at rings
'cause you swear that you're certain
And the best day of your life becomes the day
that the two of you met
Guess that's what happens the older you get


Oh, that's just the way it goes, oh
And, oh, that's just the way it goes, oh
And, oh, that is just the way it goes,
ooh-woah-woah-woah
And, oh, that's just the way it goes
