Lyrics:
it was written in the stars 
what was written in the stars shall be 
it was written in the skies 
that the heart and not the eyes shall see 

and so whether it bring joy 
whether it bring woe 
it shall be done 
now suddenly i know 
you are the one 

here as in a daydream 
by my side you stand 
here with my tomorrows 
in your hands 

it was written high above 
that i have to have your love 
or i'll never be free 
and cloudy though the day be 
crazy though i may be 
what the stars foretold shall be 

here as in a daydream 
by my side you stand 
here with my tomorrows 
in your hands 

it was written high above 
that i have to have your love 
or i'll never be free 
and cloudy though the day be 
crazy though i may be 
what the stars foretold shall be 

and so shall it be...
