The morning sun peaks through the blinds
I’m waking up with you on my mind
The island breeze is blowing sweet and low
Just like the way you make my spirit glow
I used to wander like a ship at sea
Waiting for the wind to come and rescue me
Then you stepped in, like a tropical ray
And chased all the shadows and the clouds away.
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, it’s a feeling I can’t explain
Like the desert sand when it meets the rain
Every heartbeat, every single breath
I’m loving you, baby, to the very depth.
(Chorus)
You are my destiny, yeah
The only one that was meant for me
From the mountain top to the deep blue sea
You are my destiny, my destiny.
(Whoa-oh-oh, my destiny)
(Verse 2)
They say that life is a game of chance
But I found the rhythm in our steady dance
No need to worry 'bout the crystal ball
'Cause when I’m with you, I can stand up tall
It’s written in the stars, it’s etched in the sand
I’m holding the world right here in your hand
A love like this is a sacred thing
Hear the melody that the birds all sing.
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, it’s a feeling I can’t explain
Like the desert sand when it meets the rain
Every heartbeat, every single breath
I’m loving you, baby, to the very depth.
(Chorus)
You are my destiny, yeah
The only one that was meant for me
From the mountain top to the deep blue sea
You are my destiny, my destiny.
(Bridge)
(Slower, dub-style bass reverb)
No more searching, no more doubt
This is what they’re talking about
It’s a natural vibration, a soul connection
You’re the only one in my direction.
(Direction... direction...)
(Guitar Solo / Horn Break)
(Bright, melodic solo with a Caribbean flair)
(Chorus)
You are my destiny, yeah
The only one that was meant for me
From the mountain top to the deep blue sea
You are my destiny, my destiny.
(Outro)
My destiny (Yeah)
My sweet reality
You’re the one for me, baby
(Fade out with the organ shuffle and "Yeah, yeah, my destiny")
