You can try to plan your life to the minute
I guess this girl will hate me forever
I'm stuck in the rain, she got on the plane
Hold on so tight that you'll go insane
But the train was late, she's at the gate
So I met this girl, Friday night
She said, "Why don't we just take a ride"
She says, "Who knows what we might see"
You can try to make the sun rise again
Crystal champagne, I'm stuck in the rain
You try the call, you can sign your name

So let's go, let's go
Just let go
If that's the way it is
Sorry mom, don't hate me forever

If that's the way it is
Mom said, "Study hard and you'll go far"
But then I went and shocked her
Anywhere, let's take a [Incomprehensible]"
Where's my private jet? It ain't happened yet

Now I'm sleepin' on the cold floor
And she's there waitin' for me
If that's the way it fits
Doesn't matter who you are
If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it flows, it's outta your control

I met this girl, she rocked my world
I thought I knew back in school

I was ready to go but I didn't know
Then that's the way it goes, everybody knows
Then that's the way it flows, it's outta your control
I guess we're not meant to be together
That I would be a doctor

She said, "Why don't we just take a ride and go"

Just let go, just let go
So let go, let go
Then that's the way it goes, everybody knows
Just let go
And you can try to turn the tides, but you can't
Then that's the way it flows, it's outta your control
Just let go
All of us are in this together

I said, "I'm leavin' today to go to L.A.

You can buy the house, you can own the car

Fate was gonna stop me
You can try to run the race till you win it

Let's go, let's go
I guess I shoulda kept it together
I thought I knew, but I'm a fool
Just let go, let go
I wanna be a rock star"
If that's the way it fits

Got your private plane, sit in the rain
If that's the way it fits
Yeah, I met this girl, Friday night
'Cause if the train is late, you gotta wait
Then that's the way it goes, everybody knows
