[Verse 1]
We were only little boys
Wild and free upon the Berno
Sunset's hidden by the hills
The streets of San Francisco

[Pre-Chorus]
See, I don't remember when you came
I could imagine the smile on momma's face
But things don't always turn out the way we want it to be
But I know there's gotta be

[Chorus]
There's gotta be a reason for everything
Why you smile through weakness
It still amazes me
There's gotta be a reason for everything
I don't claim to know the answers
Trust in the Father, and you'll see
That there's a reason for everything

[Verse 2]
It's been a while since those simple days
Days just seem to keep forever
You seem so close but yet so far away
And I wonder what you'd say
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I forget we're not the same
But through your eyes, I could see the whole world change
And things don't always turn out the way we want it to be
But I know there's gotta be

[Chorus]
There's gotta be a reason for everything (reason for everything)
Why you smile through weakness
It still amazes me
There's gotta be a reason for everything (reason for everything)
I don't claim to know the answers
Trust in the Father, and you'll see
That there's a reason for everything

[Bridge]
Sometimes life don't make sense at all
One day it's blue skies, sunny
Another day the rain begins to pour
I'll lay my life down on the line
Because I love you
I love you

[Chorus]
There's gotta be a reason for everything (reason for everything)
Why you smile through weakness
It still amazes me
There's gotta be a reason for everything (reason for everything)
I don't claim to know the answers
Trust in the Father, and you'll see
That there's a reason for everything
Yeah, na-na na-na na-na na-na
