Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everybody needs an anchor,, a little somethin' that makes you stay
An incentive, someone to fight for
'Cause no one really needs so much space
A couple years ago, I was lonely, I used to think there was no God
But then you looked at me with your blue eyes
And my agnosticism turned into dust
[Verse 2]
How well you know me
That I don't care if the rest don't, it doesn't matter to me, no, oh, oh
And as long as you love me
As long as we still have each other
[Verse 3]
I knew we had something from the moment I met you
And I knew we had something, no one thought it could be true
Hey, do you believe, do you believe in destiny?
'Cause I do, as I did then, when you were only 23
[Verse 4]
Pa-ra-ra, pa, pa-ra-ra, pa
Pa-ra-ra, pa, pa-ra-ra, pa
Pa-ra-ra, pa, pa-ra-ra, pa
Ah, ah
[Verse 5]
God knows that I'm a good dancer
My feet can move to the music he plays
But there were times I asked for an answer
When he was acting in mysterious ways
And there were nights that I stayed up cryin'
'Cause I was certain that things wouldn't change
But then you came, and I saw you smiling
Just like an angel, so beautifully strange
[Verse 6]
And then you touched me
It's like you were made for me, oh, like it was all meant to be, oh
And I was sure that you would love me
And that we'd always have each other
[Verse 7]
I knew we had something from the moment I met you
And I knew we had something, no one thought it could be true
Hey, do you believe, do you believe in destiny?
'Cause I do, as I did then, when you were only 23
[Verse 8]
Pa-ra-ra, pa, pa-ra-ra, pa
Pa-ra-ra, pa, pa-ra-ra, pa
Pa-ra-ra, pa, pa-ra-ra, pa
Ah, ah
[Verse 9]
I always thought that I was fine, but I was wrong
It was you, that one piece I was missing
And I could do without you, but it'd be no fun
I found you, life was suddenly easy
[Verse 10]
There ain't no worries now
There ain't no feelin' down
[Verse 11]
I knew we had something from the moment I met you
And I knew we had something, no one thought it could be true
Hey, do you believe, do you believe in destiny?
'Cause I do, as I did then, when you were only 23
