Fateful Encounters(ver 2)
[Verse 1] You were just crossing the street Coffee in hand Looking down at your feet I was late Keys in my teeth Running on empty Holding my breath A car horn Then your eyes Bumped your shoulder Mumbled “sorry” and “hi” But something slipped through the cracks of the sky Right there In the middle of the noise [Chorus] Fateful encounters Happening when we least expect it Two lives in a second collide And everything after feels different We didn’t plan it Didn’t even know what we were looking for But now I can’t remember my life From before that moment at the door [Verse 2] You left your book on the train Number and name on the very last page I found it three stations away Hands shaking Smiling like a fool Called you You laughed through the line Said “Meet me where we first tangled in time” Now every corner of this ordinary town Feels like it’s glowing where our paths crossed [Chorus] Fateful encounters Happening when we least expect it Two lives in a second collide And everything after feels different We didn’t plan it Didn’t even know what we were aching for But now I can’t remember my life From before that moment at the door [Bridge] It could’ve been nothing Just strangers brushing past But something in your soft “hello” Reached back and rewrote my past Years from now If we’re telling this To someone asking how we began We’ll trace it back to that careless slip That random touch that changed our plans (oh) [Chorus] Fateful encounters Happening when we least expect it Two hearts in a second decide That nothing will ever be quite the same again We didn’t plan it Didn’t even know who we were waiting for But now I can’t remember my life From before you opened that door
