This is my origianl 'not meant to be' . This song was inspired by a trip back to my home town in cairns. I hadnt been back there for three years and it was really overwhelming, it was great seeing old friends and people you shared your childhood with, i didnt get to see some people that were very special to me though, and i would love to sit down and have a chat with them again if i could but its hard when you live so far away!
its not meant to be
Walking down that same old street
the stables to the left of me
the tree we used to climbe that looked so big
there was a boy who lived down that street
and he used to come and visit me
i hear now hes got a couple of kids
i wouldnt mind seeing him again
but this city life is beating down on me
you cant ride the waves in a sea of concrete
you cant move people who dont move their feet
well i guess i could leave
but its not meant to be
i knew a lady and she knew grief
but she still used to smile at me
she'd talk of angels and things not meant to be
i wonder what shes doing now
i hope she has a big old house
and a dog to keep the lonlieness at bay
id sure like to see her again
but this city life is beating down on me
you cant ride the waves in a sea of concrete
you cant move people who dont move their feet
well i guess i could leave
but its not meant to be
its not meant to be
i close my eyes to see more clearly
the stars i used to watch as id fall asleep
where people work to live not live to work
and things are as they seem
but this city life is beating down on me
you cant ride the waves in a sea of concrete
you cant move people who dont move their feet
well i guess i could leave
but its not meant to be
its not meant to be
its not meant to be
