Analysis of That's the way it is



Breaks my heart to think
Only ah night with you
my prior obligations
seem to come before you
You know how it is
Ain't nothing we can do
See you next time
Until then, I be thinking bout you
See you when I see you
Guess that's how it is
Better luck, until next time
Can I get my goodbye kiss
So long sweet lady.See you then
Can't be complaining
That's the way it is.
