We were meant to be
I promise I’ll love you, tenderly
And give you my life, my soul
My everything
My hearts' for you
My hearts' for you
My hearts' for you

We could make a love story greater than Romeo and Juliet
I know that's not hard, but it sounded good in my head.
The spotlights yours, only you make me feel so infinite
Heart racing faster, I'm hanging on every little thing you said

You're the definition of America the beautiful
If only because you're in it
Only you can make me feel purposeful
I know it won't be perfect
But I know it'll be worth it
Love is meant to be erratic
Otherwise it's not worth fighting for

We were meant to be
I promise I’ll love you, tenderly
And give you my life, my soul
My everything
My hearts' for you
My hearts' for you
My hearts' for you

When it comes to you, even the simple things make me smile
Like when you lick your lips, or sway your hips
Even looking at your profile
I know, I'm a mess
This list goes on forever
Because with you I'm truly blessed

Who knows what the future holds
But let's ignore all the warnings
See for ourselves how our stories told
You're everything I saw in my dreams
Even to this day, I want to say you're make believe

I've never felt this before
But I know of this for sure
We were meant to be
Like our story was used to teach like folklore

We were meant to be
I promise I’ll love you, tenderly
And give you my life, my soul
My everything
My hearts' for you
My hearts' for you
My hearts' for you
