Fate

[Verse 1]
We lived on the same street
In Boston for a year
Didn't meet till we're 4,000 miles away
There's only so many coffee shops
And overcrowded railway stops
The fact we didn't meet is just insane
And now you're too far to take a train

[Pre-Chorus]
There's only so much the universe can do for us
And I don't trust our luck

[Chorus]
I can't leave us up to fate
Because who knows what'll change
If I book my flight we can steal back time
Screw the stars let's go down with a fight
I can't leave it up to fate with you and I

[Verse 2]
Now you're back in London
And I moved to LA
So we don't share an ocean anymore
There's only so many late night calls
And conversations unresolved
Till one of us is moving on
Before we ever get to find out
If we were something more

[Pre-Chorus]
There's only so much the universe can do for us
And I don't trust our luck

[Chorus]
I can't leave us up to fate
Because who knows what'll change
If I book my flight we can steal back time
Screw the stars let's go down with a fight
I can't leave it up to fate with you and I

[Bridge]
What if ten years down the line
We're stuck with people we don't like
And I'm wishing that we tried
What if ten years down the line
We're stuck with people we don't like
And I'm still wishing that we tried

What if
You're the what if that keeps me up at night?

[Chorus]
I can't leave us up to fate
Because who knows what'll change
If I book my flight we can steal back time
Screw the stars let's go down with a fight
I can't leave it up to fate with you and I
