Sometimes I think on all my life's good fortune
And sometimes I wonder how I came this far
Some say you earn both wealth and love
Some call it fate, some God above
For me, it was only just blind luck
Because that just happens to me sometimes
But sometimes I see a world all bent and broken
And sometimes it seems the lines have all been crossed
Can't even watch the evening news
They're shooting children in the schools
Puts me deep down in my blues
But that just happens to me sometimes
Sometimes it takes the sound of a thousand voices
And sometimes just the beat of a single drum
Sometimes it seems we've all run out of choices
Nobody left to turn to and nowhere left to run
But sometimes I feel the hope in every morning
And sometimes you just can't look back on yesterday
They say each life makes sense in time
So I'll just keep on down the line
And try to make some sense of mine
It just might happen to me sometime
That's just the way it happens sometimes
