Take It As It Comes - Steve Winwood

Raise the window on another day

Take it as it comes

Just an actor waiting for a new play

Take it as it comes

Ask me to dance, I will dance for you

Ask me to sing, see what I do If you feel sad, Ill make jokes for you

Im a handyman, Im still coming through

If you suffer from a broken heart

Take it as it comes

If your lover tears your world all apart

Got to take it as it comes

Ive played a king and a down and out fool

Some like it hot, and some like it cool

Do what they want, but dont be their tool

Savor the throne, but dont mind the stool

Carry on, carry on, carry on…

If they go too far, thats the way things are

Though it may hurt some, take it as it comes

Were all skating on the thinnest of ice

Got to take it as it comes

In a world that is not so very nice

Got to take it as it comes

And day now the curtain may fall

All the plays end, theres no curtain call

If you live sad, or it you walk tall

Were written on wind thats a lot to haul

Carry on, carry on, carry on…

If they go too far, thats the way things are

Though your mind gets numb, take it as it comes

Were all skating on the thinnest of ice

Got to take it as it comes

In a world that is not so very nice

Got to take it as it comes

Any day now the curtain may fall

All the plays end, theres no curtain call

If you live sad, or if you walk tall

Were written on wind thats a lot to haul

Carry on, carry on, carry on…

If they go too far, thats the way things are

Though your mind gets numb, take it as it comes

If they go too far, thats the way things are

If they break your thumbs, take it as it comes
