It Just Happened That Way

(Fred Carter Jr.)



I didn't plan to fall in love with you

It just happened that way

And all the time inside my heart

I knew that I'd regret it some day.



Now I can't stand to be away from you

But I'm alone every day

I didn't plan to fall in love with you

It just happened that way.



I saw you and I loved you

Why I'll never know

There wasn't one chance in a million

That our love would grow.



You were too far up above me

Any fool could plainly see

But like driftwood on the river

I floated on helplessly.



I didn't plan to fall in love

It just happened that way...
