lyrics:
once upon a time when i was just a child
i believed that if i prayed i could keep the bad away
my father was around until he chose he couldn't be
no matter how much momma prayed
it was not her choice to make
and i don't blame some god for that day
when he chose to leave
don't tell me it was meant to be
our lives are in one another's hands
there's no great mystery
does it scare you like it scares me?
how can we believe in something that we can't see
take your two hands build this town
or take your gun out and shoot it down
julie was alive until she had too much to drink
and got behind the wheel to drive
she made that choice with her own mind
and i don't feel that was her time
destiny or fate
no way that it was meant to be
it all comes down to some luck
and choices we make
does that scare you like it scares me?
how can we realize what we can't see with our eyes
and is faith as good as feel?
if you can feel it you'll know it's real
desmond lost his drive, lost his job and lost his mind
lost his house and his wife
lost the meaning in his life
and i don't think that was part of
some wonderful plan
don't tell me it was meant to be
you can't make me see that's what
was dealt to his hand
and does that scare you like it scares me?
