The Way Things Go

The Way Things Go -Thomas Rhett

You know when you're young and you know everything

The sky is the limit and the grass is a little more green

No matter where you are

And i could swore back when i was 15

I'd go to college and get my business degree

I never made it that far

God put a big old wrench in my plans

And he put this guitar in my hands

So much for crystal balls and wishing on stars

As you're watching them fall to the ground

Yeah you can dream big and you can dream small

But it all comes down to the luck of the draw so i found

Cause it's gonna rain as soon as you wash your car

And as sure as you go on and give up

You're heart a curve gets thrown

That's the way things go

I would tattoed her name on my arm

If you would've asked me i'd bet the whole damn farm

And more on us

So much for her being my meant to be

She changed her mind like the wind and the joke was on me

She left me in the dust

She hadn't left my heart black and blue

I would never found you

So much for crystal balls and wishing on stars

As you're watching them fall to the ground

Yeah you can dream big and you can dream small

But it all comes down to the luck of the draw so i found

Cause it's gonna rain as soon as you wash your car

And as sure as you go on and give up

You're heart a curve gets thrown

That's the way things go

You never know if you took the right fork in the road

Until you get where you're going it all unfolds

So much for crystal balls and wishing on stars

As you're watching them fall to the ground

Yeah you can dream big and you can dream small

But it all comes down to the luck of the draw so i found

Cause it's gonna rain as soon as you wash your car

And as sure as you go on and give up

You're heart a curve gets thrown

That's the way things go
