Analysis of Everything happens for a reason



In every life a little rain must fall,
The sooner things are revealed to you,
The better off we truly truly are,
Why chase a seemingly silver moon
When it is just another falling star,

Just like every winter turns to spring,
And more birds of a feather do their thing
And a lover retrieves their engagement ring
Every single thing happens for a reason
Because every thing always has it's season

Just like the sun shines during a rain storn
And firemen respond to false alarms
And true love falls into another arms
Just let knowledge and love be your umbrella
You might meet cinderella or cinderella

Just go with the flow and do what you know
Just like birds fly south in winter
And your baby finger gets a splinter

Some heroes are charged with treason
For no reasonable heroic reason
Yet a coward may receive the medal of honor!
Everything happens for a reason
Everything in its own season!
