So It Goes Lyrics

If I was a seagull high in a loof
I'd sail to the highest perch on your roof
But I ain't no seagull, you know my name
And the winds blowin fortune, the winds blowin pain
And so it goes, nobody knows
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
If I was a puppy dog in the early dawn
I'd make it to your house and sleep on your lawn
but I ain't no puppydog, you know my name
And the wind blows fortune, the wind blows pain

And so it goes, nobody knows
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
