(Carlene Carter/Howie Epstein)
On a night not unlike this
With a chill in the wind
And a moonlit mist
Daddy took Mama down by the bay
Kissed her and showed he
What words cannot say
They were meant to be
Sweet meant to be
Sweet meant to be
They were meant to be
Sweet meant to be, sweet meant to be
I know in my heart
I feel it right here
With you and me darlin' I have no fear
When our hearts meet on common ground
Our purpose is clear and our faith is sound
We are meant to be
Sweet meant to be
Sweet meant to be
We are meant to be
Sweet meant to be, sweet meant to be
You can dream, you can wish, but some things you know
You got the vision and I got the hope
Set a course for our mission
Together we'll carry it home
They were meant to be
Sweet meant to be
Sweet meant to be
They were meant to be
Sweet meant to be, sweet meant to be
