Meant to Be
Joda Kgosi Lyrics

We said no strings attached, I got myself tangled
We agreed to have a casual relationship, but I ended up getting emotionally attached

You were just a failed rebellion
You tried to defy expectations, but didn't quite succeed

Compared to other guys you're on a billion
Compared to other men, you excel in every way

You're the only one I've put up on a pedestal
You're the only person I hold in such high regard

You said we should be just friends
You suggested we should have a platonic relationship

But with you it can never be platonic
But with you, my feelings can never be strictly friendly

'Cause every time I see you I fall harder
Because every time I see you, my feelings for you intensify

It happens really fast like I'm Sonic
It happens quickly, like the video game character Sonic the Hedgehog

We were meant to be, Darling can't you see?
I believe we belong together, can't you see that?

Oh I hope that you would feel the same way
I hope you feel the same way about me

It's hard to walk away, I only did it 'cause you said that I shouldn't stay
It's difficult to leave, but I did it because you told me to go

I ain't ask for much, but you gave me everything
I didn't ask for much from you, but you gave me everything I needed

I fell for you everyday
I fell in love with you every single day

I loved you more than anything
I loved you more than anything or anyone else

The stars, they stay in your eyes
Your eyes are so beautiful, they shine like stars

The moon is jealous of your shine
Your radiance is so powerful, even the moon is envious

I know that I make you smile
I know that I bring joy to your life

So tell me why you ain't mine?
So why aren't we together if we have such strong feelings for each other?

It's hard, loving someone who don't love you back
It's difficult to love someone who doesn't reciprocate your feelings

I hope, next time I see you I don't feel a thing
I hope that the next time I see you, I won't feel any emotional pain

We were meant to be ( Be) Darling can't you see? ( Can't you see)
I still believe that we're meant to be together, don't you agree?

It's hard to walk away ( Yeah) I only did it 'cause you said that I shouldn't stay
Even though it's difficult to leave, I did it because you told me to go

We were meant to be ( Be) Darling can't you see? ( Can't you see)
I still believe that we're meant to be together, can't you see it too?

It's hard to walk away ( Away) I only did it 'cause you said that I shouldn't stay
Leaving is tough, but I did it because you asked me to
