I met this girl Friday night she said why don't you come with me
Anywhere let's take a flight she said, "Who knows what we might see?"
I was ready to go but I didn't know that fate was gonna stop me
I met this girl she rocked my world and she's there waiting for me
But the train was late, she's at the gate, stuck in the rain, she got on the plane
I guess this girl will hate me forever
I guess were not meant to be together
[Chorus:]
If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes
And everybody knows
If that's the way it feels
Then that's the way it flows
It's out of your control
Just let go
Let go
I thought I knew back in school that I would be a doctor
Mom said, "Study hard and you'll go far." But then I went and shocked her
I said I'm leaving today to go to L.A. I want to be a rock star
I thought I knew, but I'm a fool
Now I'm sleeping on the cold floor
Where the private jet - ain't happened it
Kristal champagne, stuck in the rain
Sorry mom don't hate me forever
I guess I should of kept it together
[Chorus]
If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes
And everybody knows
If that's the way it feels
Then that's the way it flows
It's out of your control
Just let go
Just let go
You can try to make the sun rise again
You can try to turn the tides, but you can't
You can drive the car
You can sign your name
Hold on so tight that you'll go insane
You can try to plan your life to the end
You can try to run the race until you win
You can buy the house
You can own the car
Doesn't matter who you are
I said the train is late you gotta wait
Your private plane is sitting in the rain
All of us are in it together so let go
Let go (let go)
[Chorus x2]
If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes
And everybody knows
If that's the way it feels
Then that's the way it flows
It's out of your control
Just let go
Let go
Anywhere let's take a flight she said, "Who knows what we might see?"
