“NEVER MEANT TO BE”
THEY HAD A LOCK INTO EACH OTHERS’ EYES
AND WHILE THE BOLT SHOT THROUGH THEIR HEARTS
ARRESTED BY THE KIND OF ATTRACTION
FELT LIKE IT WAS IN THE STARS
WHEN THE TIME CAME TO BUILDING THE FIRE
THAT COULDA BURNED INTO A DESTINY
THIS LOVE WENT NOWHERE
NEVER MEANT TO BE
THEY HAD COME UPON A POINT OF DECISION
AT YET ANOTHER BUMP TO WORK ON THROUGH
THAT’S WHEN THE WALL KEPTA GROWING HIGHER
AND EVERY COLOR TURNED TO BLUE
SO WHAT MIGHTA COULDA BEEN A RIPE FRUIT
WAS LEFT UNPICKED, RIGHT ON THE TREE
AND A LOVE JUST FADED
NEVER MEANT TO BE
SOMETIMES THE FATE OF A LOVE CAN BE THROWN AWAY TO THE WIND
THEN IT’S THE LUCK OF THE DRAW IF IT EVER BLOWS ON BACK AGAIN
BUT EVEN THOUGH THEY CAUGHT A GLIMPSE OF A ROMANCE
IT COULDN’T MAKE IT OUT OF FANTASY
SOME LOVE GOES NOWHERE
NEVER MEANT TO BE
AND A LOVE JUST FADED
ONE LOVE WENT NOWHERE
This is such a beautifully crafted song. Very haunting. Great combination of instruments and killer harmonies. I love it! Sometimes sad songs are the best. Will certainly play this many more times. Well done Bro!
Hey Carole,
It’s funny how these songs have become sort a dialogue for us over quite a long period of time. And it’s pretty cool California to Massachusetts pipeline.
Thank you for listening.
Lil’ Bro
Yeah, Tom,
It’s a dark song with the Lyrics and all, but the
Harmonies are great. This song should sell. Keep’em
comin’ Tommy! Like the Vibes too!
Hey SK,
We like the heavy duty vibes, too. I hope you’re right about this song selling, but as everybody pretty much accepts, songs/music don’t really “sell” these days. Can’t wait for that to change.
Thanks kindly, Stan
Best written song of da bunch!
Hey Mr. Joe,
Why thank you. I hope all is well in the Northland.
Tombo
Good lyrics, instrumentation, vocal and harmonies. Sounding really smooth!
Hey Peter,
I appreciate the listen and comments about the song and its recording.
I think that’s the first time I’ve been described as smooth. Not that I don’t think that…just that I’ve never heard it before.
Maybe I can give Buble or Tyrell a run for their money in the smooth arena.
Thank you, Peter. See you at Fort Hill soon?
Tom
I’m a little late to the listen. Very nice ghosty love song. Some things don’t last but at least they had a bolt. Still better than none.
Thanks Tom
Hey Sammy,
Ghosty…I like that. I need more ghosty tunes.
Quick love is always sad, though, eh?
Thanks for listening and responding.
Tom
