🎵 “Meant to Be” (Full version with fire + soul)
[Intro – soft piano/guitar, emotional tone]
Mmm… oh, I still believe
In the love we couldn’t keep
It echoes through my soul
Like a melody we’ll never complete...
---
[Verse 1]
I know what it should be, it played so clear
Like a favorite song I used to hear
I know what it ought to be, wild and free
But the silence now is all that’s left of me
---
[Chorus]
And I’m wondering why it wasn’t meant to be
Why the stars aligned, then let us bleed
Was it timing? Was it fate? Did we miss our beat?
I know what it should be…
But it just wasn’t meant to be
---
[Verse 2]
We were lightning caught in a glass jar light
Burned too fast, but it felt so right
I still taste your name on the midnight breeze
But the future froze in the autumn leaves
---
[Chorus]
I’m still wondering why it wasn’t meant to be
Two hearts tangled in a dream we couldn’t keep
Was it fear, was it fire, was it make-believe?
I know what it should be…
But it just wasn’t meant to be
---
🔥 [Verse 3 – bring the fire]
You lit me up like a neon flame
But love like ours don’t play no games
You were the truth I could finally trust
But we cracked in the pressure, turned gold to dust
---
🔥 [Verse 4 – build the soul surge]
Now every sunrise hits different, babe
I see your shadow in the breaking waves
If love’s a war, then I took the fall—
But I'd do it again, I'd risk it all
---
[Bridge – rising emotion, strings + electric guitar swell]
Maybe some flames only live in the dark
Maybe your love was just a spark
But if I had one more chance, one last try—
I’d love you loud, I’d love you right
---
[Break – soft beat, then powerful comeback]
You and me… we were almost infinity
---
[Final Chorus – key change, full harmony, hands in the air moment]
Oh I’m done wondering why it wasn’t meant to be
I’ll carry your light in the song inside of me
It was love, it was real, it was everything
I know what it should be…
And maybe someday it will be…
---
[Outro – slow fade, haunting but hopeful]
Mmm… maybe someday…
Maybe someday it’ll be…
