Tried to map life out But, it's a winding road This new piece I found Came, wearing heartbreaks clothes Ah, good thing I didn't get in my way Still be rolling down the wrong highway Don't know how I would've ever made it home 'Cause I've prayed, I've made plans I've talked to the man upstairs I swear sometimes he's just laughing 'Cause I've had things not work out Then they turned out to be the best things that never happened Happened to me, yeah Happened to me, yeah I chased a fool's gold rush But I found some silver linings Yeah, there's no growing up without growing things Blessings wear disguises You'll see the bitter get sweeter Sometimes the grass is greener When the things you want don't want you back 'Cause I've prayed, I've made plans I've talked to the man upstairs I swear sometimes he's just laughing 'Cause I've had things not work out Then they turned out to be the best things that never happened Happened to me, yeah Happened to me, yeah I finally see I'm not in control And I can just let go 'Cause I've prayed, I've made plans I've talked to the man upstairs I swear sometimes he's just laughing 'Cause I've had things not work out And then they turned out to be the best things that never happened Happened to me, yeah Happened to me, oh Happened to me, yeah Happened to me, yeah That was the best thing, yeah That was the best thing, yeah That never happened to me That was the best thing, yeah That was the best thing, yeah That never happened to me
