Nobody knows what the future holds
But we love to ask the question
Turn the cards and look for something
There’s a sign in the sky from the day we arrived
There’s pattern in the movements
There’s meaning in the chaos
There’re signals all around us
It’s just too dark to see em
We’re staring into shadows
Conjuring up reasons

But when all our fate is known
There’s nothing but the good times
Nothing but the good times

When all our fate is known
There’s nothing but the good times
Nothing but the good times

I get down myself for not believing 
It’s just easier to think we’re never leaving
Life is a heart that keeps on beating
But each one comes with an ending
Expiration pending
And I hope that I’ll be ready
But time is cruel and petty
And love leaves me unsteady
It’s beautiful but deadly

And when all our fate is known
There’s nothing but the good times
Nothing but the good times

When all our fate is known
There’s nothing but the good times
Nothing but the good times

I know its not easy to say now
Not easy to say now 
Not easy to say now

When all our fate is known
There’s nothing but the good times
Nothing but the good times

When all our fate is known
There’s nothing but the good times
Nothing but the good times
