Meant to Be
Luke Austen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're the air
That I breathe
You're the strength that picks me back up off my knees
You're the light
In my sky
When the darkest days ask every reason why

You're the right
In my wrong
You're the loving arms that always keep me warm
You're the time
That I can't waste
Baby, you're the smile that's on my face

You mean so much to me
You're my meant to be

So let the sun shine through my window
Let our love bring better days
Lay your head down on my pillow
Whisper my fears away

It's so plain to see
You're my meant to be

You're my heart

You're my soul
You're the one in touch each time I lose control
You're my words
You're my life
And you're the girl I plan to make my darling wife

You give so much for free
You're my meant to be

So let the sun shine through my window
Let our love bring better days
Lay your head down on my pillow
Whisper my fears away

Take my hand into tomorrow
Without dreams and without plans
I can walk through any shadow
Knowing you make me a man

It's so plain to see
Fate has finally found me




Cuz you're my meant to be
You're my meant to be
