A Lot Of Things

Nothing ever seems to go exactly how you plan

There’s a lot of things that I don’t understand

I knew a man who fell asleep, but he fell into his death

There’s a lot of things that I don’t understand

So tell me how the heart begins and tell me why it slows

And if you find a promised land, then tell me where you go

When the light hits the water like it’s reaching for my hand

And I feel the shivers running down my back

When your words are on my lips, like I thought of them myself

There’s a lot of things that I don’t understand

So tell me how the heart begins and tell me why it slows

And if you find a promised land, then tell me where you go

Nothing, nothing, nothing ever seems to go exactly how you plan

Nothing, nothing, There’s a lot of things that I don’t understand

Like when you know someone’s gone but you feel them just the same

And you carry on as though they’re coming back

When the night settles in but you’re running from yourself

There’s a lot of things that I don’t understand

There’s a lot of things that I don’t understand

Nothing, nothing, nothing ever seems to go exactly how you plan

Nothing, nothing, There’s a lot of things that I don’t understand
