Is this the togetherness she meant - so rosy 
I thought we’d share a continent - so cosy 
I thought love’s passions really 
Would be more touchy-feely 

She said it was Destiny 
She said it was written somewhere 
But if it was destiny 
Why am I over here and she’s over there 
She said it was in the stars 
Something that just had to be 
But Venus aligned with Mars 
Always really takes it out of me 

O I’m not proud of my deceit - you know that 
To come so near and then retreat - you know that 
One beat before I fell 
Somewhere I heard a bell - ring, ring 

She said it was Destiny 
She said it was written somewhere 
But if it was destiny 
Why am I over here and she’s over there 

There’s clouds across my crystal ball - too misty 
Was I too quick to give it all - when she kissed me 
She’s thrown a net on me 
Razor wire geometry 

She said it was Destiny 
She said it was written somewhere 
But if it was destiny 
Why am I over here and she’s over there 
She said it was in the stars 
Something that just had to be 
But Venus aligned with Mars 
Always really takes it out of me
