Just Happens That Way

(album: Strings - 2019)

Let me tell you a story
From not so long ago
Met a guy who'd given up on love
Content to living life alone
He wasn't out there looking
He wasn't even trying
He almost didn't go to that wedding
Where he met the best friend of the bride

It don't matter who you are
It don't matter what you say
You can try to hide your heart
But it can find you anyway
'Cause love... yeah love...
Just happens that way

She spent her whole life looking
For what the fairytale sold
And every heartbreak she had
Led her down that lonesome road
To the night at the altar
Right behind the bride
She looked and caught one of the groomsmen
Smiling at her from across the aisle

It don't matter who you are
It don't matter what you say
You can try to hide your heart
But it can find you anyway
'Cause love... yeah love...
Just happens that way

If you haven't figured out yet
This little story is mine
So pay attention to the lessons
Hidden inside these rhymes
For every painful heartache
And every teardrop cry
Could be another step leading you
To the best part of your life

It don't matter who you are
It don't matter what you say
You can try to hide your heart
But it can find you anyway
'Cause love... yeah love...
Just happens that way
