so it goes lyrics

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
