Things Will Go My Way
The Calling · The Very Best Of [2011]
How it all began
Nothing seems to work out right
I'm broken down again
So hold me now
And say its not forever
Cause maybe someday, in time
Things will go my way
I've pushed to get through
A crowd of twisted souls
Just to find I'm right back here
Doing what I'm told
So take my hand
Don't let me surrender
Cause maybe someday, in time
Things will go my way
Things will go myway
Things will go my way
For all the lies I've tasted
Just loooking for the truth
For all the dreams I'm chasing
Well what am I to do
When everything's against me
And the answers are all wrong
I'm hopin' that I find out
It was worth it all along
So hold me now
And say it's not forever
Cause I know someday, in time
Things will go my way
Things will go my way
Things will go my way
For all the lies I've tasted
Just looking for the truth
For all the dreams I'm chasing
What am I to do
When everything against me
The answers are all wrong
I'm hoping that I'll find out
Things will go my way
Things will go my way
