It Happens

When I was 16 I had a dream my eyes were green Just made my first CD, I longed to be on MTV I wore my heart out on my sleeve and girls were mean It happened Those college days just passed me by, I watched my friends get high Cannot peace out and say goodbye, I asked my mother why Can I stay home all day alone and play piano? It happens 'Cause today is gonna be your day No matter what gets in your way So open up your mind and maybe you will find Today is gonna be the day It happens Went with the boys to start a band without a plan We even made some waves in Germany and in Japan But it was over just as fast as it began It happens Got on a train to Leigh-on-Sea when it was history No time for misery, a glass half full is not empty But still occasionally I would think of how it used to be How everything was working out so well for me When it happened It happened 'Cause today is gonna be your day No matter what gets in your way 'Cause things turn out alright if you believe they might Today is gonna be the day It happens After 11 years of space, we start to gravitate Back to each other, you can call it karma, call it fate Rocked up to Glastonbury, there were just so many people there Flashback to when the guy from NME said nobody would care And now we're back out on the road, the album's almost good to go And if you're ever feeling low, you know, you know that It happens It happens, oh So today is gonna be your day No matter what gets in your way 'Cause things turn out alright if you believe they might Today is gonna be the day It happens It happens It happens It happens
