Gravity Happens - Kate Voegele

If your travels ever take you to sea

Then I’d say to you to dip in your feet

And if you battle the wind along the way

Then I’d tell you to challenge the waves

It’s a world of peculiar people

And places that look nothing like home

But it keeps turning — and turning even though

Gravity happens…

And we don’t know it till after we’ve hit the ground

The world’s spinning faster

With each day that passes and each dashing hour

What am I to do?

I’ve broken my parachute

So if gravity happens, then I’ll fasten wings to my shoes

I have gathered that the moments that shaped me

Were the ones that have tested my faith

And all that matters is the courage they gave me

I fell down and my fears were erased

'Cause in the wreckage of heartache and hindsight

A new beginning starts to unfold

And if you let it, it just might save your life

Because gravity happens…

And we don’t know it till after we’ve hit the ground

The world’s spinning faster

With each day that passes and each dashing hour

What am I to do?

I’ve broken my parachute

So if gravity happens, then I’ll fasten wings to my shoes

I’m not gonna let the world get me down, no

I got so much more to live for

And I’m starting right now

Cause gravity happens…

And we don’t know it till after we’ve hit the ground

The world’s spinning faster

With each day that passes and each dashing hour

What am I to do?

I’ve broken my parachute

So if gravity happens, then I’ll fasten wings to my shoes
