The Way You Are - Extended Version Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
These fingers aren't my fingers
These hands are not my hands
No one sees and no one cares what gets broken
Not for rhyme and not for reason
What gets broken
What gets broken
[Chorus 1]
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
[Chorus 2]
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
[Verse 2]
And the rhythm of machinery
Slows to a heartbeat
Echoing ghost just laid by
Those who whistle while they work
Out of time and out of season
What gets broken
[Chorus 1]
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
Going far, getting nowhere
Going far, the way you are
[Chorus 2]
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
Going far, getting nowhere
(To tomorrow, to tomorrow)
The way you are
(To tomorrow, climb the ladder)
[Post-Chorus]
The way you are
The way you, way you are
[Instrumental Interlude]
