I don't know who put us together
But girl, I love you
You're part of my life
You may look at someone
I may look, too
It won't change the fact
That it's always me and you

That's just the way it is
And nothing in the world can change it
That's just the way it is

I'll always be in love with you
You'll be in love with me
It's out of our hands
It's just the way it's meant to be
That's just the way it is

I know we've had our troubles
Some days we just can't take each other
But you and I
We go so much deeper
No matter what
We'll always be together

That's just the way it is
And nothing in the world can change it
Right to the end
That's just the way it is

I'll always be in love with you
You'll be in love with me
It's out of our hands
It's just the way it's meant to be
That's just the way it is

That's just the way it is
And nothing in the world can change it
Ever again
That's just the way it is

I'll always be in love with you
You'll be in love with me
It's out of our hands
It's just the way it's meant to be

That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is

That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is
