[Verse 1]
Your expectations turn from grey to black
You have to get your independence back
Realizations subtle as a heart attack

[Chorus]
It was not meant to be

[Verse 2]
She wants to be a star and paint the town
That kind of person throws themselves around
And in your heart, I know you want to settle down

[Chorus]
It was not meant to be
It was not meant to be
It was not meant for you
And you are no island

[Bridge]
And there's significantly less to prove
And there's significantly more to lose
Walking a mile in someone elsе's shoes

[Verse 1]
Your expectations turn from grеy to black
You have to get your independence back
Realizations subtle as a heart attack
[Chorus]
It was not meant to be
It was not meant to be
It was not meant for you
And you are no island
And you are no island
And you are no island
