Electric Light Orchestra - The way life?s meant to be
------------------------------------------

Well, I came a long way to be here today
And I left you so long on this avenue
And here I stand in the strangest land
Not knowing what to say or do
As I gaze around at these strangers in town
I guess the only stranger is me
And I wonder, yes I wonder, is this the way life's meant to be?

Although it's only a day since I was taken away
And left standing here looking in wonder
The ground at my feet maybe it's just the old street
But everything that I know lies under
And when I see what they've done to this place that was home
Shame is all that I feel
And I wonder, yes I wonder, is this the way life's meant to be?

Too late, too late to cry the people say
Too late for you, too late for me
You've come so far, now you know everything, my friend
Just look and see the wonders of our world

And I wonder, yes I wonder, is this the way life's meant to be?

As I wander around this wreck of a town
Where people never speak aloud
With it's ivory towers and it's plastic flowers
I wish I was back in 1981
Just to see your face, instead of this place 
Now I know what you mean to me
And I wonder, yes I wonder, is this the way life's meant to be?

And I wonder, yes I wonder, is this the way life's meant to be?
I wonder, oh, I wonder, wonder, wonder
Is this the way life's meant to be?
Is this the way life's meant to be?
Is this the way life's meant to be?
I wanna know now - is this the way life's meant to be?
