Once upon a lonely time
I could barely make it though the night
It always seemed the sky was falling
Down on me
But life's funny you don't own it
Things can change in a single moment
That's what happened to me
Every time a promise fell through
Every time my heart broke in two
And it was always too dark to see the horizon
When I thought I had it right in my hand
It would slip right through like sand
I didn't know why but now I see
That life had other plans for me
I was doing my best,giving my all
Kept hittin' my head up against the wall
Missin' the mark when I thought my
Aim was true
I didn't know just what it meant
But now I see that it was heaven sent
'Cause that's when I met you
Every time a promise fell through
Every time my heart broke in two
And it was always too dark to see the horizon
When I thought I had it right in my hand
It would slip right through like sand
I didn't know why but now I see
That life had other plans for me
When I was at my worst
And couldn't see the light
Somehow I knew it would
Be alright,cause
Every time a promise fell through
Every time my heart broke in two
And it was always too dark to see the horizon
When I thought I had it right in my hand
It would slip right through like sand
I didn't know why but now I see
That life had other plans for me
