Destiny's Joke

Across the river as gentle it floats
Tries not to hurt you or let you fill
Some thoughts keep on hanging on and find the home they’ve sought for,
But you came closer to my heart in so much confusion
Lost but hopeful I wandered through islands of memories
Full of desire, full of a sense no one else would ever guess
Destiny brought my dreams and whishes into reality
But insecure as I was – it’d be destiny’s joke
Bringing me someone I could never answer or to reach out at

Strength will be my fire, love my water
To calm me down from the long road
I believe and I believe I can make this my own to make it mine
Sword and shield, kisses and imperfection
Oh I’ll lead you through

Upstream the water is a silhouette
Whispering words that makes me confused
They try to hit the water but it’s all reflected through,
From this distance we performed there was a place to be near,
A brightness token but yearning to be released again,
Destiny brought me dreams and whishes on which I held so strong
And insecure as I’d be – it’d be destiny’s joke
Bringing a young god I’d never be able to even touch him,

The willing will be so strong in my tears
Desire will take its highs and come
I believe and I believe I can make this my own to make it mine
Sword and shield, kisses and imperfection
And I’ll lead you through
