Lyrics
[Verse 1] When I grew up I had big city dreams I wondered if the Bible was wrong What the hell were they teachin' me? I was lost in thought And I could not hide it But the sun, it kept on rising So I played along [Chorus] But now that you're gone And I write down this song I don't believe This is how it's meant to be The church bells, they ring You can hear the mourners sing They still believe This is how it's meant be [Verse 2] The wheels touch down All I can see is your face Amidst the noise of thе lights The last thing on my mind was my faith And then the morning camе And the sun started rising But I was missing my friend So how do I carry on? [Chorus] 'Cause now that you're gone And I write down this song I don't believe This is how it's meant to be The church bells, they ring You can hear the mourners sing They still believe This is how it's meant be [Bridge] Like a mother bird crying out for its young I will sing out loud with all the might in my lungs [Chorus] 'Cause now that you're gone And I write down this song I don't believe This is how it's meant to be The church bells, they ring You can hear the mourners sing They still believe This is how it's meant be [Outro] How Oh, how it's meant to be, yeah
