Written in the stars
Never wonder what I feel
as living shuffles by
You don't have to ask me
and I did not reply
EVERY MOMENT OF MY LIFE
FROM NOW UNTIL I DIE
I WILL THINK OR DREAM OF YOU
and fail to understand
how a perfect love
can be confounded out of hand

Is it written in the stars?
Am I paying for some crime?
Is that all that I am good for -
just a stretch of mortal time?
is this God's experiment
in which I have no say?
IN WIHICH I'M GIVEN PARADISE
- BUT ONLY FOR A DAY?

Nothing can be altered
there is nothing to decide
no escape, no change of heart
nor any place to hide

YOU'RE ALL I EVER WANTED
BUT THIS I AM DENIED
sometimes, in my darkest thoughts
I wish I'd never learned
what it is to be in love
and have that love returned

Is it written in the stars?
Am I paying for some crime?
Is that all that I am good for -
just a stretch of mortal time?
is this God's experiment
in which I have no say?
IN WHICH I'M GIVEN PARADISE
- BUT ONLY FOR A DAY?
