Some learn early and some learn hard

Somebody called me in from my backyard

And I heard the whispers, something was wrong

And I knew you were gone

But the sun came up and the sun went down

Spring was waiting beneath the frozen ground

And I'll be seeing you around

So it goes, so it goes

And I made some good friends and I made mistakes

Lost my religion and I found my faith

And I tried to walk down every path I chose

So it goes

And the sun comes up and the sun goes down

Spring was waiting beneath the frozen ground

And I'll be seeing you around

So it goes, so it goes

Seems like a small offering

In the grand scheme of things

But it gets me through, yeah

The thought of losing you

And the sun comes up and sun goes down

Spring was waiting beneath the frozen ground

And I'll be seeing you around

So it goes, so it goes
