Sometimes you meet someone and you just get a feeling that you are destined to be together. Maybe you will be, maybe you won't be, but the feeling is both rare and unshakable.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Before you came into my world
I was happy alone
I didn't know where I was going

Living each day at a time
I could never have known
My imminent change of direction

When you burst into my life
A potent wild storm
A hurricane in my sea

Vibrant with essence of joy
Kindhearted and warm
Eager to know me

And that's when I first knew
We're meant to be

It wasn't so easy, at first
To find you alone
You drew men like moths to a flame

Timing and luck were required
So chance wasn't blown
Waiting for just the right moment

To tell you just how I felt
To ask you the same
If you wanted me too

Time froze while I waited then
You whispered my name
Pulled me close in to you

And that's when you first knew
We're meant to be

Sharing the rest of our lives
It just has to be
One of the greatest adventures

The chance of fate, luck and fortune
Bringing you home to me
Has got to be one in a million

Now we don't travel alone
Our journey is shared
The direction is clear

On to whatever will be
I'm always prepared
When you are near

And we will always know
We're meant to be
