Lyrics for It Is Not Meant To Be

I wanted her I wanted her But she doesn't like the life that I lead She doesn't like the life that I lead Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet Or sitting around smoking weed I must seem more like a friend in need And I boast that it is meant to be But, in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell I'm happy just to watch her move And in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell I'm happy just to watch her move And she doesn't like the friends that I make Doesn't make friends for friendship's sake She just gets bored sitting by the lake Her soul won't surface and her heart won't ache And I boast that it is meant to be But, in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell I'm happy just to watch her move And I thought they could cure his disease But, in all honesty He didn't have a hope in hell Now we'll never see him move
