Lyrics Written In The Stars (with Elton John)

[LeAnn Rimes:]
I am here to tell you we can never meet again
Simple really,
Isn't it?
A word or two and then
A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
You think of me,
Or speak of me,
Or wonder what befell
The someone you once loved so long ago, so well

[Elton John:]
Never wonder what I feel
As living shuffles by
You don't have
To ask me and
I need not reply
Every moment of my life
From now untill I die
I will think or dream of you
And fail to understand
How a perfect love can be confounded out of our hand

[Chorus:]
Is it written in the stars?
Are we paying for some crime?
Is that all that we are good for?
Just a stretch of mortal time
Is this God's experiment?
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But only for a day

[Elton John:]
Nothing can be altered there is nothing to decide
No escape
No change of heart
No any place to hide

[LeAnn Rimes:]
You are all I've ever wanted, but this I am denied
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts I wish I'd never learned

[Both:]
What it is to be in love and have that love returned

[Chorus][x2]
