Destiny, You Shine

[Verse 1]
Her name's Destiny
met her on a slow June day
coffee cup shaking in my hand
didn't know what I could say
You laughed at my bad joke
and the whole room fell away
since then every little moment
feels brighter than yesterday
[Chorus]
Destiny, I love you
you make my life feel so much more
more lively than it used to be
I'm not lonely like before
your eyes, they shine like diamonds
when they’re looking into mine
Destiny, I love you
thank God you crossed my line (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
You snort when you start laughing
I swear it gets me every time
turn the worst days into stories
I replay inside my mind
You tease me when I’m stubborn
you hold me when I’m tired
in your arms the world feels simple
like everything’s rewired
[Chorus]
Destiny, I love you
you make my life feel so much more
more lively than it used to be
like a window, open door
your eyes, they shine like diamonds
when they’re looking into mine
I love your jokes, your crazy heart
and you, my favorite find
[Bridge]
If I lose my way tomorrow
if the sky comes falling in
I’ll still reach for your fingers
let this wild little story begin (hey!)
[Chorus]
Destiny, I love you
you make my life feel so much more
more lively than it used to be
like a dance on an old pine floor
your eyes, they shine like diamonds
I see forever in that light
Destiny, I love you
gonna love you all my life

country, Warm blend of country blues ballad; male vocals over fingerpicked acoustic, soft brushy shuffle, and a subtle organ pad. Verses stay intimate with close-mic vocal and gentle slide guitar fills; chorus swells with stacked harmonies, upright bass walking a little stronger. Final pass adds a small gospel-style backing choir and a lingering guitar tail., blues
