[Verse 1]
Sometimes you find what you didn't know
You were always looking for
Sometimes a broken heart
Is just a window closed
That leads you to an open door
Sometimes you trip on a four-leaf clover
Sometimes a good time ends hungover

[Chorus]
‘Cause life goes like that
You try not to grow up, you fall in and out of love
No, it ain't always gonna look like what you dreamed of
You're gonna take some wrong turns to the right place
You're gonna have short years and long days
So raise your cup up, and make it last
'Cause in a Polaroid flash
Life goes like that
Na, na, na, na, na
Life goes like that
Na, na, na, na, na

[Verse 2]
You pray like hell, you pay them bills
You call mama anytime you can
You fly away just to come back home
Wasn't where you thought you'd land
But God smiles when you make them plans
[Chorus]
‘Cause life goes like that
You try not to grow up, you fall in and out of love
No, it ain't always gonna look like what you dreamed of
You're gonna take some wrong turns to the right place
You're gonna have short years and long days
So raise your cup up, and make it last
'Cause in a Polaroid flash
Life goes like that
Na, na, na, na, na
Life goes like that
Na, na, na, na, na

[Bridge]
Take a breath, take a sip, and take a tip back
'Cause you're gonna catch yourself moving too pedal-down fast

[Chorus]
And life goes like that
You try not to grow up, you fall in and out of love
And it ain't always gonna look like what you dreamed of
You're gonna take some wrong turns to the right place
You're gonna have short years and long days
So raise your cup up, and make it last
'Cause in a Polaroid flash
Life goes like that
Na, na, na, na, na
Yeah, life goes like that, yeah
[Outro]
Oh it goes, oh it goes, oh it goes like that
Na, na, na, na, na
Oh it goes, oh it goes, oh it goes like that
Life goes like that
Na, na, na, na, na
In a Polaroid flash
Life goes like that
