If your travels ever take you to sea

Well, then I'd say to you to dip in your feet


And if you battle the wind along the way


Well, then I'd tell you to challenge the waves




It's a world of peculiar people


And places that look nothing like home

But it keeps turning and turning even though





Gravity happens

We don't know it till after we've hit the ground


And the world's spinning faster


With each day that passes and each dashing hour




What am I to do?


And I've broken my parachute

So if gravity happens


Then I'll fasten wings to my shoes




I have gathered that the moments that shaped me


Were the ones that have tested my faith


And all that matters is the courage they gave me

I fell down and my fears were erased





In the wreckage of heartache and hindsight

A new beginning starts to unfold


And if you let it, it just might save your life




Because gravity happens


We don't know it till after we've hit the ground


And the world's spinning faster

With each day that passes and each dashing hour





What am I to do?

I've broken my parachute


If gravity happens


Then I'll fasten wings to my shoes




I'm not gonna let the world get me down

I got so much more to live for


And I'm starting right now



'Cause gravity happens


And we don't know it till after we've hit the ground

And the world's spinning faster


With each day that passes and each dashing hour



What am I to do?


I've broken my parachute

If gravity happens

Then I'll fasten wings to my shoes
