She was sixteen and he was twenty

She'd never strayed from that small town

He rode the rodeo

Her daddy said you know

That kind don't ever settle down



She took a job down at the diner

He started stoppin' by sometimes

She'd laugh when he would say

I'm gonna marry you someday

Little did that young girl realize



Some things are meant to happen

Some things are bound to be

Love has a way of making doubting hearts believe

Sometimes in spite of difference

Sometimes against all odds

Some things are meant to happen

It's written in the stars



He chased his dreams out on the circuit

She went on with her small town life

But when that cowboy came back home

He wouldn't leave her heart alone

Till she fell into his arms one starry night



Some things are meant to happen

Some things are bound to be

Love has a way of making doubting hearts believe

Sometimes in spite of difference

Sometimes against all odds

Some things are meant to happen

It's written in the stars



They bought a house in town

And had a baby boy named Joe

Bought him a rocking horse

So he could ride the rodeo



Some things are meant to happen

Some things are bound to be

Love has a way of making doubting hearts believe

Sometimes in spite of difference

Sometimes against all odds

Some things are meant to happen

It's written in the stars
