How It Can Be

See the blood on the magazine

See the shine on the record machine

Oh-oh-oh it can not be so bad

Oh-oh-oh but I feel so sad about it now

Black marble in the ivory tower

This year's mile and the man of the hour

Oh-oh-oh it don't mean a thing

Even the birds, they all refuse to sing about it now

And I-I-I-I-I-I feel lonely, man

If I thought you would understand

Just how it could be

No, don't say it's just me

Well, ya know, ya know, ya know how it can be

With my baby right under my arm

Leave the city, go back to the farm

Oh-oh-oh we'll be alone at last

Oh-oh-oh and that sky will pass below the sun

Meet me, baby, in the pale moonlight

'Neath the willow, sweet bye and bye

Oh-oh-oh I can see it now

Oh-oh-oh I can feel just how there'll be no one

And I-I-I-I-I-I feel lonely, man

If I thought you would understand

Just how it could be

No, don't say it's just me

Well ya know, ya know, ya know how it can be

Well ya know, ya know, ya know how it can be

Well ya know, ya know how it can be
