And you can't break your neck to keep your ducks all in a row
But don't think every chance you take, has to mean a new mistake
It ain't necessarily so
Now depending on the soil and the season
You can plant a seed and you can watch it grow
But you can't have a guarantee 'cause everything that aught to be
Ain't necessarily so
I laugh when I can and I live with the rest
I learned that holdin' on means lettin' go
I try to be a friend to the person on my left
They say you just can't be too careful who you know
But that ain't necessarily so
I'd like to have more faith in human logic
Basin' all the rules on the proof that you can show
But I can't take my guesses back that I based on all those facts
That ain't necessarily so
And every time I follow what I'm feelin'
I end up in the same place my heart would have me go
If there's one rule of life I trust, it's everything outside your gut
Ain't necessarily so
I laugh when I can and I live with the rest
I learned that holdin' on means lettin' go
I try to be a friend to the person on my left
They say you just can't be too careful who you know
But that ain't necessarily so
I laugh when I can and I live with the rest
I learned that holdin' on means lettin' go
I try to be a friend to the person on my left
They say you just can't be too careful who you know
But that ain't necessarily so
You can't break your eggs to count your chickens And you can't break your neck to keep your ducks all in a row But don't think every chance you take, has to mean a new mistake It ain't necessarily so Now depending on the soil and the season You can plant a seed and you can watch it grow But you can't have a guarantee 'cause everything that aught to be Ain't necessarily so I laugh when I can and I live with the rest I learned that holdin' on means lettin' go I try to be a friend to the person on my left They say you just can't be too careful who you know But that ain't necessarily so I'd like to have more faith in human logic Basin' all the rules on the proof that you can show But I can't take my guesses back that I based on all those facts That ain't necessarily so And every time I follow what I'm feelin' I end up in the same place my heart would have me go If there's one rule of life I trust, it's everything outside your gut Ain't necessarily so I laugh when I can and I live with the rest I learned that holdin' on means lettin' go I try to be a friend to the person on my left They say you just can't be too careful who you know But that ain't necessarily so I laugh when I can and I live with the rest I learned that holdin' on means lettin' go I try to be a friend to the person on my left They say you just can't be too careful who you know But that ain't necessarily so Explain Request ×
