Fate
Colony 5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This must be fate
like on the movie screens
it's the first time for all
is this really what I need?

Come back to me
You belong here
All the gods of this age
will become enraged
if you are not by my side

Give me time
Give me your life
I'll give you mine
Two lovers entwined

This is fate
it has to happen
it's bound to be
I know you're not free
but fate can't be too late

Give me time
Give me your life




I'll give you mine
Two lovers entwined
