Destiny
Jennifer Rush · Other Songs - Jennifer Rush
But there's no denying, I'm able to choose
I know what leaves me cold and what burs me up
Now this time it's just right I'm very sure
I call it wonder, something hard to define
Sometimes it's thunder that strikes my senses hard
He's my destiny and it's hard to see how could I love him more
He's my destiny got a hold on me I'm always back for more
My heart has spent time drifting back and forth in love
Just in what direction was never sure
And then he moved up towards me and towed me in
Nobody's moved me quite like this
I call it wonder, something hard to define
It's just like thunder that strikes my senses hard
He's my destiny and it's hard to see how could I love him more
He's my destiny got a hold on me I'm always back for more
Oh, he can turn me around slow me down
Anytime he sees it fit to hold me back
Oh it's enough to make me go out of my mind
He's my destiny and it's hard to see how could I love him more
He's my destiny got a hold on me I'm always back for more
