Why Things Happen - Jimmie Allen/Darius Rucker (达柳斯.拉克)/Charley Pride

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 spinnin'

It's hard not to question circumstances

That leave you with nothin' to say

Is there some kind of message

Some kind of lesson

D**n life's hard to explain

Oh God tell me why things happen

Things happen like they do

Leave 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

Wonderin' why things happen

Things happen like they do yeah

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 d**nit 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 wonderin' why things happen

Things happen like they do

Your heart keeps on beatin'

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

Leave you thinking 'bout how time leaves you

It gets you all confused

Yeah yeah yeah

In the blink of a moment gone 'fore you know it

Hits you right out of the blue

Hits you right

Wonderin' why things happen

Things happen like they do yeah

Things happen things happen

Oh yeah

Do yeah

Yeah
