[Verse 1] Ive been looking years for you Thought you might be too good to be true So I picked you up and held you to the light I ran my fingers over and over For the sign of any flaw And then I put my money down and bet it all [Chorus] How could God just put you in my path If we werent meant to last [Verse 2] I picked out the perfect place Where I could keep you safe On the top shelf of my fragile beating heart So I let all my walls come down Coz I was so sure this time I would always be yours and youd be mine [Chorus] How could God just put you in my path If you werent meant to last [Bridge] But nothing lasts Anything and everything can crash And sometimes it takes an avalanche And sometimes you just tear [Verse 3] I guess you never know whats right No matter how you try Somethings wont go the way we plan I thought you were supposed to be The one that was made for me And Ive gone crazy trying to understand [Outro] How God just put you in my path If we werent meant to last
