Gary Lewis & The Playboys
Concrete and Clay
[Verse 1]
(You to me) Are sweet as roses in the morning
(You to me) Are soft as summer in the dawn
In love we share
That's something rare

[Chorus]
The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
Because we’ll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

[Post-Chorus]
My love and I will be in love eternally
(That’s thе way) Ooh, that’s the way it’s meant to be

[Verse 2]
(All around) I see thе purple shades of evening
(On the ground) The shadows fall and once again
You’re in my arms
So tenderly

[Chorus]
The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
Because we’ll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye
[Post-Chorus]
My love and I will be in love eternally
(That’s the way) Ooh, that’s the way it’s meant to be

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begin to crumble
But love will never die
Because we’ll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

[Post-Chorus]
My love and I will be in love eternally
(That’s the way) Ooh, that’s the way it’s meant to be

[Outro]
(That’s the way) That’s the way it’s meant to be
(That’s the way) Ooh, that’s the way it’s meant to be
(That’s the way) That’s the way it’s meant to be
(That’s the way) Ooh, that’s the way it’s meant to be
