Lyrics
Meant To Be
c. 2004 Ashland Miller
There are ways I could figure this life out
Find someone and settle down
But settling has never been my style
I?ve always felt there?s something else
A greater force beside myself
(chorus 1)
I?ve often wondered who will be right for me (who will be right for me)
I?ve always heard that there?s a perfect match for everybody
And if there?s one for you and there is one for me
Maybe, maybe we were meant to be
I can?t question things that seem so perfectly right (seem so right)
When it comes to you and me
There?s a voice that come to me each night
Tells me that my search is through
I found all I need in you
(chorus 2)
I?ve often wondered who will be right for me (who will be right for me)
I?ve always heard that there?s a perfect match for everybody
And if there?s one for you and there is one for me
Maybe, maybe we were meant to be
(bridge)
I?ve tried through lonely years
To build a strong foundation
But in time I?ve realized
I need more than my own creation
(chorus 3)
I?ve often wondered who will be right for me (who will be right for me)
I?ve always heard that there?s a perfect match for everybody
And if there?s one for you and there is one for me
Maybe, maybe we were meant to be
(I?ve often wondered who will be right for me)
I?ve always heard that there?s a perfect match for everybody
And if there?s one for you and there is one for me
Maybe, maybe, we were meant to be
Meant to be (meant to be)
We were meant to be.
