Meant to Be

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing makes sense when we fight
I can't wait to see you and tell you I'm sorry
No one's perfect, we all tell lies
But you still give me butterflies
Every day since the day I met you
It's not up to me
Baby just close your eyes
And face our destiny
I was made for you
You were made for me
Baby just hold me tight
Cause this was meant to be
This was meant to be
Still in bed and it's almost night
Doesn't matter who was right
I can't wait to see you and tell you I'm sorry
No one's perfect, but we can try
I could never say goodbye
Just come home again, and let me deserve you
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
Baby just close your eyes And face our destiny
I was made for you
You were made for me
Baby just hold me tight
Cuz this is what was meant to be This was meant to be
