Miles and mountains stand between us... With judgmental points of view Yet, despite our circumstances, My love can't be kept from you. Time and Faith are on our side As we take each day in stride Following our hearts with pride What we have won't be denied... Because: We were meant to be When the say "you can't" then it means "you must!" You were meant for me In you I trust Because One day, we'll be free And belong to no one else but each other We've found Destiny In one another... And our story still continues -- Drama no one else believes... Reality's what you and I choose When the heart's true, it achieves All the lessons that we're learning All the trials we're put through... Keep Desire's fires burning Soon we'll know just what to do... Because: We were meant to be When the say "you can't" then it means "you must!" You were meant for me In you I trust Because One day, we'll be free And belong to no one else but each other We've found Destiny In one another...

Mark .... This reminds me very much of a wonderful little story by Stephen Vincent Benet called "Too Early Spring". I think that you would enjoy it. Anyway, thanks for this. Bob |

Well, I hate to be repetitive, but I've been here too. I like the positive determination that fate will not keep you apart. Also sounds like a song. Whats the tune? S |

Funny how we all share the "same" experiences even though they are all naturally different... yet another classic paradox, Sandra. These lyrics fit a melody in the style of one of my all-time favorite groups called Alphaville -- from their first album entitled "Forever Young". It's very 80's Euro/new-wave and saturated in melodies, harmonies, and beauty (if you enjoy that style, I'd HIGHLY recommend this album... it's the one album I can think of that I've heard HUNDREDS of times and it never gets old!). So, this melody is higher tempo, positive and up-lifting, and 100% electronic, as it stands. Thanks for the read and reply. -MVS "If you think you know it all, you have a lot to learn." |
