I met this girl, Friday night
She said, 'Why don't you come with me?
Anywhere, let's take a [Incomprehensible]'
She says, 'Who knows what we might see'
I was ready to go but I didn't know
Fate was gonna stop me
I met this girl, she rocked my world
And she's there waitin' for me

But the train was late, she's at the gate
I'm stuck in the rain, she got on the plane
I guess this girl will hate me forever
I guess we're not meant to be together

If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes, everybody knows
If that's the way it fits
Then that's the way it flows, it's outta your control
Just let go, let go

I thought I knew back in school
That I would be a doctor
Mom said, 'Study hard and you'll go far'
But then I went and shocked her
I said, 'I'm leavin' today to go to L.A.
I wanna be a rock star'
I thought I knew, but I'm a fool
Now I'm sleepin' on the cold floor

Where's my private jet? It ain't happened yet
Crystal champagne, I'm stuck in the rain
Sorry mom, don't hate me forever
I guess I shoulda kept it together

If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes, everybody knows
If that's the way it fits
Then that's the way it flows, it's outta your control
Just let go, just let go

You can try to make the sun rise again
And you can try to turn the tides, but you can't
You try the call, you can sign your name
Hold on so tight that you'll go insane

You can try to plan your life to the minute
You can try to run the race till you win it
You can buy the house, you can own the car
Doesn't matter who you are

'Cause if the train is late, you gotta wait
Got your private plane, sit in the rain
All of us are in this together
So let go, let go

If that's the way it is
Then that's the way it goes, everybody knows
If that's the way it fits
Then that's the way it flows, it's outta your control

So I met this girl, Friday night
She said, 'Why don't we just take a ride'
So let's go, let's go

Yeah, I met this girl, Friday night
She said, 'Why don't we just take a ride and go'
Let's go, let's go

Just let go
Just let go
Just let go
