I didn't know things were supposed to be this way
I wasn't told of this before
But had I known about this fall
For some time, maybe I could have been
I should have known
I once was dropped among this crowd
I didn't know things were supposed to be this way
No one ever told me this before
It's all right was all I heard
This will blow away
When it fades from my mind
It's gone and left behind
As we age each day flies by
Still I don't know why
And it's fadin' fast
How could we make this last
And it's fadin, fadin fast
Then all things must pass I guess
I didn't know things were supposed to be this way
No one ever told me this before
It's all right was all I heard
This will blow away
