Mary Chapin Carpenter - Sudden Gift Of Fate Lyrics
(mary chapin carpenter)Some people need to know what to expectNeed to keep control, need to keep one stepAhead of every chance, as if chance decidesWho its gonna pass, who it will rewardThey dont understand, chances dont keep scoreThey just find us when were there to findChorus:And so this has to be, a sudden gift of fateYoure nothing less to me than a sudden gift of fateIts not as if it comes down to your turn that someone somewhere feels youve earnedYou just learn to wait for sudden gifts of fateSome people have never been the lonely kindNever called a friend in the middle of the nightJust to hear a voice say its okayAnd now I hear you speak each and every wordThat I didnt think lonely people heardYou took a long night and turned it into dayChorus:And so this has to be, a sudden gift of fateYoure nothing less to me than a sudden gift of fateIts not as if it comes down to your turn that someone somewhere feels youve earnedYou just learn to wait for sudden gifts of fateYou can celebrate, gifts are never lateYou just learn to wait for sudden gifts of fate
