So It Goes

If I was a seagull high and aloof I'd sail to the highest perch on your roof But I ain't no seagull, you know my name And the wind's blowin' fortune, the wind's 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 --- So It Goes - Tom Waits
