...most of it’s out of your hands

So many reasons for you to be smiling

But you’re not about to see ‘em,

You’re not about to feel ‘em,

You’re not about to be ‘em

You don’t believe them

So many reasons for you to be angry

So many reasons, it’s not the way you planned it

But all you can do is see ‘em,

All you can do is feel ‘em,

All you can do is let them be

Life happens

While you making other plans

Life happens

While you tryna understand

You’re kicking it in the shade

And you’re thinking you got it made

Life is gonna happen to you anyway

Life happens, life happens

You’re lost at sea like a ship without a captain

Drifting endlessly around imaginary islands

The things you’re missing, the moments slipping

So stop your wishing and start listening

There’s too much whining, oh oh oh

Too much complaining, yea eh eh

We should be laughing

We should be kissing

We should be here right now

Life happens

When you’re waiting for the bus

Life happens

While the day’s collecting dust

Don’t be givin’ it all away, start living it for today

Cause life is gonna happen to you anyway

Life happens

And most of it’s out of your hands, oh oh

So why don’t you get up and dance

Just dance, just dance, oh uh uh

Life happens

While you’re walking down the street

Life happens

While you shuffle up your feet

Don’t be givin’ it all away, start living it for today

Cause life is gonna happen to you anyway

(Life happens)

When you’re waiting for a call

(Life happens)

When you think you got it all

(Life happens)

When you’re cleaning up a mess

(Life happens)

And when you’re busy getting dressed

(Life happens)

When you’re dancing in the dark

(Life happens)

When you got a broken heart

(Life happens)

When you’re chillin’ in the sun

(Life happens)

And when you meet the only one

(Life happens)

And when you runnin’ out of the time

(Life happens)

When you’re goin’ out tonight

(Life happens)

And when there’s nothing left to do

(Life happens)

It’s still happening to you

(Life happens)
