So I stand up

Feel the needles in my feet

And my legs are still asleep

But it's the morning


Fold the blankets

Shake the grass out of the sheets

Throw it all in my back seat

And drive you home


Yeah knowing me and knowing you

The stars could not have had a clue

We never meant to start this thing between us


It just happened that way

Ya know sometimes it does

Sometimes the planets align

And you both lose time

Can't change your mind


It just happned that way

No time to invest

Ya just pray for the best 

And you say

It just happened that way

Just happened that way


By tomorrow

We may be the talk of town

Yeah word will get around

That we're together


Oh but the thing is, girl

They will never understand

It was just an accident 

That kinda worked out


Yeah knowing me and knowing you

I think we can both agree

We never meant to start this thing between us


It just happened that way

Ya know sometimes it does

Sometimes the planets align

And you both lose time

Can't change your mind


It just happned that way

Mo time to invest

Just pray for the best 

And you say


Oh love

We could run yeah, we could run away

Thinking it over

We could run yeah, we should run away

Would you come with me

We could run yeah, we should run away

Thinking it over


I'm smiling

Cause I know that they will see

Our straight and narrow ways just took a turn

We'll take a highway without ever looking back

And in ten years we can laugh at how we got there


Yeah knowing me and knowing you

The stars could not have had a clue

We never meant to start this thing between us


It just happened that way

Ya know sometimes it does

Sometimes the planets align

And you both lose time

Can't change your mind


It just happened that way

No time to invest

Just pray for the best 

Oh and I know it's a mess

We'll pray for the best

We'll say

It just happened that way

Just happened that way
