Paths Paved in Fate

Paths paved in fate, always lead home

Send me a letter or pick up the phone

Don't let our ending be filled with total silence

When we've lived our whole lives out loud

I'm sitting here being told not to take blame, 

being laughed at by the crowd

I watch life pass by on the sidelines

I miss the two of us on those city streets

Believing our journey would never be complete

Passion in the air and I was floating away

With you to another world

In love with the one I adore, I would do anything for

But then the streetlights shine the truth

And I have to tell myself I will be fine

I no longer have you by my side

But paths paved in fate always lead home

My broken heart will have to mend

Learning to now be my own best friend

Until the day, we reunite, when the timing will be just right

I'll make the money and follow my own dreams

Adjust to the calm that beats through the walls

Onto the arms of another, trying something new

But always waiting for that path that leads back to you

My heart can't wait forever, for now though, it will skip a beat and wait

So you can take your time, make your plans, and realize

You will only shine on the path paved in fate that leads you back home

Work your hours and travel your world for miles

Come home to empty walls of memories

Was it all worthwhile?

Go ahead, fall into the arms of someone new,
Believe me, it won't feel the same as me and you.

You will soon realize that all you left, was really all you ever had.

So please.....Push me, take me, we will grow together

Into something new,
Don't run, don't hide, 
Be a man, and take my hand
This is our wild ride

Nothing good happens unless you are scared

So push the limits of your soul

Learn how far you can push towards your goal

But don't push away, push towards that path

Follow that path paved with fate...it will lead you back to me.

I've moved on. I am strong. I have learned about the person I want to be.

With a stronger skin, and a patched up heart, please, hold me, and tell me this was all meant to be.

I see your face, the streetlight shines the truth back to me
Your far and near
Getting closer, I hear
You've had second thoughts, you've tried the other side
But fate was calling all along
So listen to that song, it's calling your name
on that path paved with fate, calling you home, where you belong.
