*Everything Happens For a Reason
So, I'm finally back after six years,
And I ask myself, "what am I doing here"?
But after all the tears, couldn't waste another year
But we finally met, face to face
Couldn't leave his trace
And it's all in the eyes
So now I'm even more wise
Everything happens for a reason
Just like a season
You know the seven stages of grief
But you become the brand new leaf
So naturally, we sit here,
And it already feels like years,
But this time, they're the similarities, that are in the tears
Could this be the beginning of a very good year?
But we finally met, face to face
Couldn't leave his trace
And it's all in the eyes
So now I'm even more wise
Everything happens for a reason
Just like a season
You know the seven stages of grief
But you become the brand new leaf
But we finally met, face to face
I couldn't leave your trace
And it is all in your eyes
So now I am even more wise
Everything happened for a reason
Just like that season
I now know the seven stages of grief
And I have become that brand new leaf
And even though, they say "time is a thief"
I am no longer under the feet of a so called "chief"
So now, I have run off like the "thief"
And I tell myself, "what a relief"
