Meant To Be

Now as fall finds the trees
Changing color shed their leaves
Float away in the breeze
And now I wish that it was me

The reflection of me
Can't be rippled, solid sea
Try to push off the shore
Tell me why I'd want to speak

When I have time to myself
I'd rather think about something else
But I still try to believe
The way things are is meant to be

Sometimes inside a dream
In the state I want to be
Now I wake and I see
This is my reality

Turn around, try to face back towards the shore
Only thing I see now is the slowly melting oar
And the ships turn around and return themselves to the port
But I know that it won't be me when you come back around

Do you think about me?
It's been so long now, I can't see
But I still try to believe
The way things are is meant to be
Do you think about me?
A crystal ball that I can't read
'Cause somehow all that I see
Is a future with you next to me

The way things are is meant to be
The way things are is meant to be
Way things are is meant to be
