And you know, until it happens to you
Where you lose something, oh my golly
That's why you wanna be sweet to each other

I woke up, heard the bad news
Thank God I'm not in your shoes
I wouldn't know what to do
And then that's when you said
I'll never understand
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you

Don't think about the future, it's alright
One foot in front of the other, one day at a time
I used to bounce you on my knee
one day you'll do the same thing
And be the father like I was for you my entire life

A happy version's of you's all I know
Never seen you so upset
I woke up, heard the bad news
(I woke up, heard the bad news)
Thank God, I'm not in your shoes
(thank God, I'm not in your shoes)
I wouldn't know what to do (I wouldn't know what to do)
And then that's when you said (that's when you said)
I'll never understand (understand)
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you

Well, boys, uh
If I could tell you one thing
I'll tell you one thing
Well, don't miss a second of it
The horrible things, the mess that will happen
The mess
And the ecstacy that will happen
Don't protect yourself from any of it
Protect
But until it happens to you
when you lose, you're going to lose
When you lose
When you lose, you're going to lose us at some point
And one day I'm gonna have to say goodbye
Goodbye
But uh, there you go, for now we're here
Goodbye, goodbye
And I'm crazy 'bout you
Okay, okay, kids, here we go
Until it happens to you, go
keep that in mind, okay, bye, bye, bye

A happy version's of you's all I know
Never seen you so upset

I woke up, heard the bad news
(I woke up, heard the bad news)
Thank God, I'm not in your shoes
(thank God, I'm not in your shoes)
I wouldn't know what to do (I wouldn't know what to do)
And then that's when you said (that's when you said)
I'll never understand until it happens to you (understand)
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Until it happens to you
Happens to you

Yeah, until it happens to you
Woah, happens to you
