Manifest Destiny
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She wants you
She needs you
She will never let it show
And even though she'd die for you
She will never let you know
And the way that she wants
Is the way that she wants
And she can't give it away
The heart, the heart
Will take what it wants
The mind has nothing to say
He wants you
He needs you
He will never let you see
And even though he runs from you
He will never let you free
The way that he wants
Is the way that he wants
And he can't give it away
The heart, the heart
Will take what it wants
The mind has nothing to say
Oh i can want and you can want
And just try to throw it away
But it's all the manifest destiny
The hands the hands will never hold you
Unless you give your heart away
You take a step and then you're falling
Better take his hands and fly away
Oh so high away
Can you fly away
And the way that you want
Is the way that you want
And you can't give it away
The heart, the heart
Will take what it wants
The mind has nothing to say
Oh i can want and you can want
And just try to throw it away
But it's all the manifest destiny
You think you can walk away, but i know the truth
