This Is What Happens
Words and Music by Jay Pounders

This is what happens when things don't turn out
this is what your Mama had warned you about
This is what happens when dreams don't come true
this is what happens when its me and its you

Even though you may know
It don't seem right
even now you wonder how
you'll make it through the night
just let it go

This is what happens when life goes astray
this is what happens when things don't go your way
This is what happens when you learn from mistakes
this is what happens when you don't catch the breaks

Even though you may know
It don't seem right
even now you wonder how
you'll make it through the night
just let it go

This is what happens to your well intentioned plans
this is what happens when it slips through your hands
This is what happens when everything turns out wrong
this is what happens when your life is not a song
