Why do we come into each other’s lives?
Maybe we’ll never know, maybe it’s just meant to be
When will we next cross paths with someone new?
Maybe we’ll never know the answer to this mysteryWhere have you been ‘til now?
How did you live before?
Under the faraway blue sky
Separate lives are brought togetherYou are like a vertically-sown thread
I am like a horizontal one
And we weave a tapestry
One whose destiny could be
To wrap around somebody cold
Keeping them warmSome days we wonder why this life goes on
And so the edge of our tapestry begins to fray
Sometimes we stumble chasing after dreams
Until the future seems out of reach, so far away“What could this single thread
Ever become?” I said
That was before I realized
What was beyond the scope of my eyesYou are like a vertically-sown thread
I am like a horizontal one
And we weave a tapestry
One whose destiny could be
To cover up somebody’s wound, helping it healYou are like a vertically-sown thread
I am like a horizontal one
And when finally we cross
With the thread that’s meant for ours
We weave a tapestry they call happiness
