Bruce Hornsby The Range The Way It Is的歌詞如下：
Verse 1:
The way it is, it's all around me
The way it is, I'm feeling down
But I'll be alright, I'll be alright
I'll be alright, I'll be alright
Chorus:
The way it is, it's all I know
The way it is, I'm feeling low
But I'll be alright, I'll be alright
I'll be alright, I'll be alright
Verse 2:
The way it is, it's all in my head
The way it is, I'm feeling sad
But I'll be alright, I'll be alright
I'll be alright, I'll be alright
Chorus:
The way it is, it's all I know
The way it is, I'm feeling low
But I'll be alright, I'll be alright
I'll be alright, yeah
Bridge:
I don't know what tomorrow brings
But I know that today will be fine
And I know that tomorrow will be better
And the day after that even better
So yeah
Chorus:
The way it is, it's all I know
The way it is, yeah the low has passed
But I'm alright, I'm feeling better now
And now the sky looks even brighter now yeah yeah
