Why Things Happen

 

Why Things Happen

(album: Bettie James - 2020)


You'll never know when your last breath's gonna fade like a July sunset
Or how a tragedy like gravity holds you still while the world keeps spinning
It's hard not to question circumstances that leave you with nothing to say
Is there some kind of message? Some kind of lesson? Damn, life's hard to explain

Oh God tell me why things happen
Things happen like they do
Leaves you thinking 'bout how time leaves you
It gets you all confused
In the blink of a moment, gone 'fore you know it
Hits you right out of the blue
Wondering why things happen, things happen like they do

How a child that's just been named can then be pulled from the arms of a mother
Or a cross on the side of a two-lane road holds the memory of somebody's brother
You try not to question God and his judgement, but damn it, I don't understand

Somebody tell me why things happen
Things happen like they do
Leaves you thinking 'bout how time leaves you
It gets you all confused
In the blink of a moment, gone 'fore you know it
Hits you right out of the blue
You got me wondering why things happen, things happen like they do

Your heart keeps on beating
Through all of those feelings
That you thought you'd never get through
There must be a reason
Our eyes are not seeing
Everything we want them to, uh
So tell me why things happen, yeah yeah yeah

So tell me why things happen
Things happen like they do (Like they do)
Leaves you thinking 'bout how time leaves you (Leaves you thinking)
It gets you all confused (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
In the blink of a moment, gone 'fore you know it
Hits you right out of the blue (Hits you right out of the blue)
Wondering why things happen, things happen like they do (Things happen)
(Things happen, things happen)

done
