Guess Things Happen That Way - Emmylou Harris

Well, you ask me if I’ll forget my baby

I guess I will some day

I don’t like it but I guess things happen that way

You ask me if I’ll get along

I guess I will some way

I don’t like it but I guess things happen that way

God gave me that girl to lean on,

Then he put me on my own

Heaven help me be a man

And have the strength to stand alone

I don’t like it but I guess things happen that way

You ask me if I’ll miss her kisses

I guess I will every day

I don’t like it but I guess things happen that way

You ask me if I’ll find another

I don’t know, I can’t say

I don’t like it but I guess things happen that way

God gave me that girl to lean on,

Then he put me on my own

Heaven help me be a man

And have the strength to stand alone

I don’t like it but I guess things happen that way
