That's How It Is Lyrics - Marvin Gaye

[MG:] Oh baby, there's a letter on the floor 

That I just can't read no more 

'Cause the words upon its face are sayin' goodbye 

There's a plate upon the table 

Filled with food I could not eat 

There's a made-up bed in the bedroom where I couldn't sleep 

I just sit & weep 

Oh baby, that's how it is since you've been gone 

That's how it is, I'm so all alone

[TT:] Now the curtains are drawn in my lonely room 

& the darkness fills the air 

& this old empty heart of mine is in despair 

Even though the tears I shed 

Washed the words away 

I could still remember every word you had to say 

They just wouldn't go away 

Oh baby, that's how it is since you've been gone 

That's how it is, I'm so all alone

[MG:] Oh baby, you knew right from the start 

That my heart was in your hands 

[TT:] & your every, every wish, boy, was my command 

That's why I can't understand 

How you could leave me here helpless, dear 

Alone & afraid, oh how could such a mistake be made? 

But that's how it is since you've been gone 

That's how it is, I'm so alone, oh baby 

That's how it is since you've been gone 

That's how it is, I'm so alone
