Girls' Generation's song Destiny is an ode to finding true love and the excitement that comes with it. The song starts with Jessica's vocals pining for her love, describing how she looks at him and feels her heart racing. She then sings about the moment she met him and knew that he was her "destiny." The lyrics describe the intensity of their emotions, and how they will never let go of each other. The chorus repeats the sentiments over a sweet melody, with the girls singing about how every day they will hold on to the feelings they have for their significant other.
The rest of the song describes how every day of the week will be filled with their love, with Monday being the day they will start their journey together with excitement and joy, Tuesday being the day they will fall even deeper in love, and every other day just filled with thoughts of each other. The lyrics convey a passionate and euphoric feeling towards love, with the girls expressing how they will hold on to each other no matter what.
