Lyrics

It Can Happen

You can fool yourself

You can cheat until you're blind

You can cut your heart

It can happen

You can mend the wires

You can feed the soul apart

You reach

It can happen to you

It can happen to me

It can happen to everyone eventually

It's a constant fight

A constant fight

You're pushing the needle to the red

Black and white

Who knows who's right

No substitute you're born you're dead

Fly by night

Created out of fantasy

Our destinations call

Look up - look down

Look out - look around

Look up - look down

There's a crazy world outside

We're not about to lose our pride

It can happen to you

It can happen to me

It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to say

It can happen today

As it happens

It happens in every way

This world I like

We architects of life

A song a sigh

Developing words that linger

Through fields of green through open eyes

This for us to see

Look up - look down

Look out - look around

So look up - look down

There's a crazy world outside

We're not about to lose our pride

It can happen to you

It can happen to me

It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to say

It can happen today

As it happens

It happens in every way

As you happen to see

It will happen to be

Nothing happens to nowhere and nowhere

Look up - look down

There's a crazy world outside

We're not about to lose our pride

It can happen to you

It can happen to me

It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to see

It will happen to be

Nothing happens to nowhere and nowhere

You can fool yourself

You can cheat until you're blind

You can cut your heart

You can fool yourself

It can happen to you

You can cheat until you're blind

It can happen to me

You can cut your heart

It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to say

It can happen today

As it happens

It happens in every way

You can mend the wires

You can feed the soul apart

You can touch your life

You can bring your soul alive

It can happen to you

It can happen to me

It can happen to everyone eventually

As you happen to say

It can happen today

As it happens

It happens in every way
