lyrics

IT IS WHAT IT IS
Words and Music by Serene Dominic

It is what it is
Nothing could change it back
Oh it is what it is
Nothing could change it back

I was safe till you found me here
A stranger in the crowd
I can hide only for a time
Before the truth gets out

It is what it is
Nothing could change it back
Oh it is what it is
Nothing could change it back

Must love die on the vine for you
To know it's really real?
If you've ever buried part of you
You'd know just how I feel

It is what it is
Nothing could change it back
Oh it is what it is
Nothing could change it back

I can try to stay and lie
Is that the kind of person that your really want
Maybe you are lying too
Make me out the fool isn't that the kind you really want
Wanting you?

I WANT YOU! I WANT YOU!

I can run like a demeaned river and never reach the stream
It's not too late to find a place where we can share our dreams

Don't cry Johnny! Don't cry Johnny!
Don't cry Johnny! Don't cry Johnny!
Johnny don't you go downtown!
Johnny don't you go downtown!
Oh Johnny!
