going your own way

don’t know what to say
you’re going your own way
and whatever i try to do
you’re doing what you want to

there’s no use in trying
to get it the way that i want it
all you ever do is what you always wanted to

whatever i say you’re not going to listen to
a single word though you know i might be right

for however i’ve tried
i didn’t get it made in my life
i can see the fool i am in your eyes

but however i tried
and i did try very hard
somehow it wouldn’t work out

whatever you do you’re not gonna make
the same mistakes that i did
going your own way

whatever you do
i know you’re gonna make it through
i know you will be all right

and i look in your eyes
and i see
what you don’t
what you can’t
see a better me
at better times
