Lyrics

By eric clapton and peter robertson

Chorus 1
It's in the way that you use it
It comes and it goes
It's in the way that you use it
Boy don't you know

Chorus 2
And if you lie you will lose it
Feelings will show
So don't you ever abuse it
Don't let it go

Verse 1
Nobody's right till somebody's wrong
Nobody's weak till somebody's strong
No one gets lucky till luck comes along
Nobody's lonely till somebody's gone

Chorus 1

Chorus 2

Verse 2
I've seen dark skies, never like this
Walked on some thin ice, never like this
I've told you white lies, never like this
Looked into true eyes, never like this

Chorus 3
It's in the way that you use it
Boy don't you know
So don't you abuse it
Man don't let it go
