Lyrics

Destiny

There were times I made some choices, some I can?t recall
I know I made my share of mistakes, I hope I learned from them all
Sometimes I prayed for answers, and other times I knew
Times I kept my fingers crossed while I waited for a clue

See I?m not a man who leaves that much to chance
Yet I?ve taken more, more than a few
But I?ve never been one to stay in line
Took it all in stride and lived with what I had
Now what?s my destiny?

I get up every morning and go to work each day
But I know it?s not my calling when I?m a million miles away
Autumn rainstorms make me wonder
Why the seasons need to change
I listen to the thunder, It?s calling out my name

Destiny knows what?s at stake
Relying on destiny for the choices I make
What?s my destiny? Am I looking too hard?
Will I watch my world fall into place?
Will time heal the scars of destiny?

People say they?d like to do it all over again
And wonder where they?d be today
They say things don?t go quite the way they?re planned,
But I?ll find a way, I will find a way

I could move out west to Vegas, double down on life
And give myself the odds I never had
Or maybe Colorado, where I hear the air is nice
Play guitar off a mountainside, can?t be all that bad

Always tried to stay ahead, I never let myself fall behind
A decent man, the best that I could be
But if everyone has a path, then there must be one to find
I think I?ll wait until that golden path finds me

Only destiny knows what?s at stake
Just relying on destiny for the choices I make
Oh destiny will take me where I have to be
Is it my destiny? (Sweet destiny) I guess I?ll wait and see
And blame it on destiny?Ridin? on destiny
