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
While you making other plans
Life happens
While you tryna understand
When 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
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
So many reasons for you to be happy
So many reasons for you to be smiling
We should be laughing
We should be kissing
We should be here right now
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
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)
