Living of this earth can be a bit stressful
But I've got the time, I did not come to rescue
Just because everything is not going your own way
Doesn't mean your problems with vanish with some sensi
The heart of my guitar is invested in my soul
Take a bottle and a moment and I wills sing and I will show
That there's a million other people who can do what I can do
But when the moment is awaiting I will bring it on home to you

Everything goes your way
Everything goes your way
Everything goes your way
Everything goes your way
I woke up to the sun in the morning
Looking for adventure when I found my self exploring
It's my passion, my only true love
I look for inspiration from the lord up above
But when I go in inside my room and I begin to write
I find the things I want to say the most are hidden deep inside
Of a secret inspiration that was planted in my brain uh oh
Everything goes your way x7
Everything goes...

Everything goes your way x7
Everything goes...
