Lyrics John Butler Trio – When It Happened

We’re pushing 90 miles an hour, on the 101
I couldn’t be more sure that we were the only ones
But then that cop came and he took us down, we knew we couldn’t run
But it was worth it, cause I was with you when it happened

We missed the morning train, headed to LA
Praying to God that he would make everything okay
So we hitched a ride with a paraglider, got there right on time
And it was worth it, cause I was with you when it happened

How come the times we most enjoy are when things are going wrong
But when we’re there I realize that’s to you I belong
Cause when the wind blows and the rain falls it’s hard to go alone
And when them rough days come around I can’t help but say it was worth it
Cause I was with you when it happened

This little hill we sit on every Friday night
The beautiful sunset made everything seem right
But then the rain came and it washed away our lovely time
But it was worth it, cause I was with you when it happened

How come the times we most enjoy are when things are going wrong
But when we’re there I realize that’s to you I belong
Cause when the wind blows and the rain falls it’s hard to go alone
And when them rough days come around I can’t help but say it was worth it
Cause I was with you when it happened

Sitting here just thinking about all the things we’ve done
A perfect day we’ve never had but I wouldn’t change one
Cause when the wind blows and the rain falls I don’t have to go alone and it’s all worth it
Cause I was with you when it happened
Cause I was with you when it happened
