This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
All my bills have all gone paid
I crashed the car again
I broke the bank

This coulda been a slow song
A laundry list of all my wrongs
But at the end of the day
This is my beautiful disaster piece I've made
Gonna laugh I know the pain is here

This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
There's got to be a reason for the rain

I don't understand the numbers
But my faith is in the math
And come someday these twisted ties will tangle
And we'll look back and laugh

And to all the hearts I've broken
And the ones that once broke mine
I've got suspicions, all will be forgiven in time
Gonna look you in the eye and say

This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
There's got to be a reason for the rain

And if it ever gets bad
I mean stay in bed bad
I'll move to Nova Scotia
Forget the life I had
I'll be up at 9 each morning
Down by the shore
Collecting things that fell off boats in storms
Well ok so I might never
But it's nice to know the option's there

This will all make perfect sense someday
I'll be A-Okay
There's got to be a reason for the rain

And it doesn't help
That i keep biting my lip in the same place

    General Comment:Very cool message in this song, This will all make perfect sense someday, he is saying that ultimately he will one day look back on all the troubled times and all the thing he had to go through to get where he is and know it was for a reason. Like allof that had to happen the way it did in order to achieve his present outcome. The line the best tells this is
    I don't understand the numbers
    But my faith is in the math
    And come someday these twisted ties will untangle
    And we'll look back and laugh

    He does not understand how the numbers(struggles) will add up, but they will and the final product will be beautiful

    General Comment:This song really spoke to me when I was going through a very tough time in life.

    "I have suspicions that all will be forgiven in time"

    Very true, all will be. A very poetic song with a catchy rythm. One of my favorites.

    General Comment:I have two versions of this song. One is "shit the bed" and the other is "crashed the car." Whoever posted these lyrics messed some of them up. anyways, it's great to listen to this song whenever I feel like everything is going wrong and nothing will ever be right again. TWAMPSS kind of gives hope that everything happens for a reason and that good things can come from bad situations.

    John Mayer is a fantastic singer//songwriter, and gives me so much hope for the music industry in general...his grasp on human emotion is, for lack of a better word, fantastic.

    Anyone know when he's releasing a new album?
