Hyslop, Joshua - This Is How It Goes Lyrics






Standing on the steps thinking I could try again
Or I could tear this all apart
I don't need you now, like I did back then
I just don't want to fall too hard

But this is how it goes
When you let it back in
This is how it goes
And this is how it goes
When you're defined by it
This is how it goes

I can be alone, I could be myself again
I don't have to play a part
Getting offered sex even though you're waiting on [?]
I just don't want to go that far

But this is how it goes
When you lose lovers and friends
This is how it goes
And this is how it goes
When your means become hands
This is how it goes

And I hear a voice as sweet as before
It's been the same from the start
Oh just this once, and just this once more
I watched this all fall apart

But this is how it goes
When you let it back in
This is how it goes
And this is how it goes
When your defined by it
This is how it goes
Goes

    OMG.. thanks for giving us such a lovely song..amazing music and great voice too. 😘

  2. c.... ....

    I must say when I first heard this banjo riff, I get chills down my spine. Fell in love with Hyslop's banjo (Not the girls here, I swear!) :)

    Thank you!

    Thank you!

    Lovely song

    Is this a joke? This song is AWESOME. But the video is all kinds of WTF.

    s.... ....

    This made me laugh out loud.

    s.... ....

    @Joshua Hyslop It's not that bad. 😏

  5. M.... I....

    Listening and watching this music video when you are high is amazing.

    Christopher Joshua Hyslop is a Canadian folk singer-songwriter, signed to Nettwerk Records. Hyslop released his debut EP, Cold Wind, on Nettwerk in 2011. Born in Saskatoon in 1987
    Interview with Greg Jones: When I ask artists the question of what motivates them to write music, there are a variety of responses, but more often than not it’s some version of “I just need to.” Then there’s Joshua Hyslop’s response. When he said, “my first album was written after a near-death experience in India.” Talk about a hook. I asked him for more detail, but what’s most important is that this second album, In Deepest Blue is about Hyslop’s process of coming out of the “numbness” that the near-death experience created in him. If it seems loaded with existential questions and great philosophical ideas, there’s a pretty great reason why.

    The more I talked to Joshua, the more he reminded me of Noah Gundersen’s set of existential and spiritual questions. He talked a bit about his Christian upbringing that directed him toward a number of doubts about what he termed the “inconsistencies” within his faith. What’s really remarkable about Joshua, though, is that he proceeded to tell me about his heart for the poor and homeless that sounds more like Jesus than the vast majority of Christians I know. So (if you all will allow me this moment away from the music), if this is what a doubter’s love looks like, I think you’re doing it right.

  17. S.... _....

    Night shift brought me here ❤️

  18. J.... C....

    I found the video a heartfelt expression of the song. The free form dance wonderfully captured the individual and the individual contribution to a couple which fits my interpretation of the lyrics. The dance helped me feel the lyrics and was a beautiful translation which I applaud.

    J.... C....

    J CC this. <3

  19. K.... ....

    Jordan and TC moment on night shift 😍😍😜

    K.... ....

    Yes !!!

    K.... ....

    @Joshua Hyslop night shift season 3 episode 3.
    And thank you very much for your brautiful music and lyrics!

  20. a.... ....

    I was just going to say that I think the dance here is brilliant and adds texture to the song. I can understand why some might find the dance distracting but I found it mesmerizing and flowing with the rhythms and forms both in the visuals and in the sounds. Very relaxing and conducive to letting go.

  21. L.... l....

    VERY ATTRACTING SOUND

  22. A.... F....

    Oh damn... his voice is just amazing <3

    A.... F....

    Thanks Andrea!

  23. R.... C....

    Two worms wriggling

    M.... A....

  28. J.... G....

    Sometimes the music makes me feel a hurricane of feels all around my mind and it's one of best sensations of the world. 🌻

  29. J.... M....

    listened to this song tonight on radio caroline and was blown away by how refreshing vibrant and beautiful it is without any doubt.

  30. J.... O....

    impressionnantes performances...

  31. m.... ....

    Dancing like the angels I saw the night Jerry Garcia died, so for me ~ a heavenly match!

  32. A.... S....

    The video makes me crave a threesome...the music.....eh, it really sucks....BAD.

    A.... S....

    Classy!

  33. F.... c....

    Nice song!

  34. M.... a....

  35. L.... S....

    Train tracks/trestle on the Island? I feel like I've been to this place before :O

  36. k.... ....

    I am a hopeless romantic and i wrote a song called "secret of the night" for my wife in hopes she would come back to me. You can watch it on my channel and feel free to critique, cheers!

  40. G.... ....

    Wow this song is great

    G.... ....

    pepapig you are a couple of things

  41. L.... H....

    Meh. I love this song but I feel like the video doesn't fit it at all...

    L.... H....

    +Lauren Hannah  I think its the freestyle dancing trying to drive home the message of letting it go....perhaps a bit too artsy. Would have made a better video if it was of what the song is actually saying.

    L.... H....

    no, i like the artsy style and it fits well with the song in my opinion. not everything has to be obvious.

    L.... H....

    We tried it with just me dancing but it was upsetting.

    L.... H....

    @Joshua Hyslop I think it's great I love it just the way it is. I agree with ally .also, today it's the first time that I'm hearing you and your graet!

    L.... H....

    I think two girls represent the inner me and outer me. When facing something, they are beating (dancing) with each other to make a decision. At last, the decision is: whatever, let it go...
