This girl Friday night
she said why don't you come with me
anywhere just take a flight
she said just who knows just what we might see
I was ready to go
but I didn't know
fatet was gonna stop me
I met this girl
she rocked my world
she's there waiting for me
the train was late
she's at the gate
she's stuck in the rain
she got on the plane
I guess this girl will hate me forever
I guess we're not meant to be together
if that's the way it is
then that's the way it goes
and everybody knows
if that's the way it fits
then that's the way it flows
it's outta 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 LA
wanna be a rock star
thought I knew
but I'm a fool
I'm sitting on the cold floor
where's my private jet
ain't happened yet
crystal champagne
I'm standin' in the rain
sorry mom don't hate me forever
guess I should've kept it together
if that's the way it is
then that's the way it goes
and everybody knows
if that's the way it ifts
then that's the way it flows
it's outta 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 a car
you can sign your name
hold on so tight that you'll go insane
you can try to paint your life to the picture
you can try to run the race 'til you win it
you can drive a house
you can own a car
doesn't matter who you are
I said the train is late
you gotta wait
in your private plane
sitting in the rain
all of us are in this together so
let go (let go)
if that's the way it is
then that's the way it goes
and everybody knows
if that's the way it fits
then that's the way it flows
it's outta your control
so that's the way it is
just let go
just let go
