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
