Carpenters Lyrics

"Do You Know The Way To San Jose" lyrics


Go while the going is good
Knowing when to leave may be the smartest thing anyone can learn
Go
I'm afraid my heart
Isn't very smart

Fly while your still have your wings
Knowing when to leave won't ever let you reach the point of no return
Fly
Foolish as it seems
I still have my dreams

So I keep hoping
Day after day as I wait for the man I need
Night after night as I wish for a love that can be

Though I'm sure that
no one can tell where their wishes and hopes will lead
Somehow I feel there is happiness waiting for me

When someone
Walks in your life you just better be sure it's right
'Cause if he's wrong there's heartaches and tears you must pay

Keep both of your
Eyes on the door never let it get out of sight
Just be prepared when the time has come you run away

Sail when the wind starts to blow
But like a fool I don't know
When to leave
