It Just happens

 

I slipped and fell into another daydream

I stumbled on an old memory

I tripped and almost broke

My fool heart again,

It just happens to me

 

I don’t have to try and cry

Think or drink

It just happens

 

You’re in my dreams

I wake up missing you

Someone’s kissing me

But I’m still kissing you

It just happens

 

I’m not looking for a place to hide my soul away

No cabin full of cobwebs, or a coal mine cold an gray

I don’t have to close my eyes to feel you by my side

Your fingertips run slowly up and down my spine

It just happens

It just happens

Because of you

 

I know you don’t see what’s ailing me

The shadows that keep chasing me

The whispering among the pine trees

But it happens

I can’t fix a dream, just to hold you fast

I can’t apologize to the past

I can’t help but see the image of you in front of me

Your arms reach out, and tenderly caress me

It just happens

Because of you

 

I don’t have to try,I don’t have to try

I don’t have to try,I don’t have to try

I don’t have to try,I don’t have to try

 

It just happens

Because of you
