This story starts 2004
You stood waiting by the door
And i was staring at the floor
With no idea
That you'd lean in and close your eyes
For our first real kiss goodnight
It all caught me by surprise
I won't forget it
That was the time and the place
That's what started the chase
I thought that you should know
I'd never let you go
Even when we were apart
Leaving was hard to do
But we were never through
I knew if i told you so
And you came back we'd know
It's meant to be
It's meant to be
A few years later once again
First we tried to be just friends
But that all changed by summers end
I still remember
We'd spend forever in your room
Shared our secrets no one knew
But you were heading back to school
I watched you leaving
I knew that you needed space
But i wouldn't give up on the chase
I thought that you should know
I'd never let you go
Even when we were apart
Leaving was hard to do
But we were never through
I knew if i told you so
And you came back we'd know
It's meant to be
As four more years pass us by
Thought i was loosing my mind
But i won't lose you this time
I thought that you should know
I'd never let you go
Even when we were apart
Leaving was hard to do
But we were never through
I knew if i told you so
And you came back we'd know
I hope that you finally know
It's meant to be
It's meant to be
