Meant to Last
I've been looking years for you,
Thought you might be too good to be true,
So I picked you up and held you to the light.
I ran my fingers over and over
For the sign of any flaw,
And then I put my money down and bet it all.
How could God just put you in my path,
If we weren't meant to last?
I picked out the perfect place
Where I could keep you safe,
On the top shelf of my fragile beating heart.
So I let all my walls come down,
Coz I was so sure this time,
I would always be yours and you'd be mine.
How could God just put you in my path,
If you weren't meant to last?
But nothing lasts,
Anything and everything can crash.
And sometimes it takes an avalanche
And sometimes you just tear.
I guess you never know what's right,
No matter how you try,
Somethings won't go the way we plan.
I thought you were 'sposed to be
The one that was made for me,
And I've gone crazy trying to understand,
How God just put you in my path,
If we weren't meant to last.
Thought you might be too good to be true,
So I picked you up and held you to the light.
I ran my fingers over and over
For the sign of any flaw,
And then I put my money down and bet it all.
How could God just put you in my path,
If we weren't meant to last?
I picked out the perfect place
Where I could keep you safe,
On the top shelf of my fragile beating heart.
So I let all my walls come down,
Coz I was so sure this time,
I would always be yours and you'd be mine.
How could God just put you in my path,
If you weren't meant to last?
But nothing lasts,
Anything and everything can crash.
And sometimes it takes an avalanche
And sometimes you just tear.
I guess you never know what's right,
No matter how you try,
Somethings won't go the way we plan.
I thought you were 'sposed to be
The one that was made for me,
And I've gone crazy trying to understand,
How God just put you in my path,
If we weren't meant to last.
