If It's Meant to Be
Why was there no applause?
It was our best performance
All in all, thought our last night
Went quite well
We knew all of our lines
And we knew how to say them
Just how to play them
Keeping it light 'til the tears fell
Though we both knew our story was ending
We were surprised when it came
Some things are just too good to be true
And no one's to blame
So there was no applause
When we brought down the curtain
We were so certain
There wasn't anything left to say
Maybe somehow our hearts knew
What our eyes couldn't see
Love would wait for us someday, someway
If it's meant to be
So there was no applause
Though there were tears and laughter
Then moments after we left the stage
And we closed the play
Maybe somehow our hearts knew
What our eyes couldn't see
Love would wait for us someday, someway
If it's meant to be
It was our best performance
All in all, thought our last night
Went quite well
We knew all of our lines
And we knew how to say them
Just how to play them
Keeping it light 'til the tears fell
Though we both knew our story was ending
We were surprised when it came
Some things are just too good to be true
And no one's to blame
So there was no applause
When we brought down the curtain
We were so certain
There wasn't anything left to say
Maybe somehow our hearts knew
What our eyes couldn't see
Love would wait for us someday, someway
If it's meant to be
So there was no applause
Though there were tears and laughter
Then moments after we left the stage
And we closed the play
Maybe somehow our hearts knew
What our eyes couldn't see
Love would wait for us someday, someway
If it's meant to be
