Lyrics

[Verse 1]

When you walked into my lonely life tonight

I saw my destiny, I saw eternity tonight

And the moment I held you I knew it

What we do is decided before we do it

[Verse 2]

Fate, this can only be

Fate, I never thought I'd believe in

Fate, now I understand

It's part of the plan

I was meant to be your woman

[Verse 3]

Time stood still and we were lost on words to say

And though the people stared, they seemed a million miles away

All we knew it was love we were feeling

We were destined to give it a whole new meaning

[Verse 4]

Fate, this can only be

Fate, I never thought I'd believe in

Fate, now I understand

It's part of the plan

I was meant to be your woman

[Verse 5]

In my heart I feel I've loved you all my life

I was in the dark, but now I think I've seen the light

I rang like a bell with your laughter

Something tells me I'll love you forever and ever

[Verse 6]

Fate, this can only be

Ooh, it's fate, this can only be

It's part of the plan

I was meant to be your woman

[Verse 7]

It's part of the plan

I'll love you forever and ever

Fate, this can only be

Fate, I never thought I'd believe in

Fate, now I understand

It's part of the plan

I was meant to be your woman

Fate, this can only be

Fate, I never thought I'd believe in

Fate, now I understand
