Intended Collision

[Intro – gentle acoustic guitar strum, faint pedal steel hum] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1 – slow fingerpicked guitar, soft snare tap] I’ve walked through crowds a thousand times Passed faces that fade like old porch signs But when your eyes locked with mine that night I knew this wasn’t some wrong turn’s plight [Pre-Chorus – subtle bassline, rising pedal steel] The world’s got billions of beating hearts But ours found each other right where we start No random chance, no twist of fate Just a quiet promise the universe made [Chorus – full acoustic band, warm harmonies, swelling pedal steel] Some souls don’t cross by coincidence They collide with intention, no defense I don’t believe we met by accident You’re the one my heart was meant to spend [Verse 2 – soft piano undercurrent, steady shaker] I trace the lines of your calloused hands Listen to the stories your laugh demands My mind still stumbles to find the words But my heart’s known you since the first bird [Pre-Chorus – layered vocals, building guitar strums] The stars aligned in a perfect frame Guided us past every stormy claim No lucky break, no happy mistake Just a love that the dark couldn’t shake [Chorus – intensified band, soaring pedal steel solo tease] Some souls don’t cross by coincidence They collide with intention, no defense I don’t believe we met by accident You’re the one my heart was meant to spend [Bridge – stripped back acoustic guitar, intimate vocals] You’re not a page I’ll turn and forget You’re the rewrite that made my story set Every quiet moment, every loud refrain You’re the reason I’m not the same [Solo – weeping pedal steel, slow and mournful, sparse guitar backing] (Instrumental Solo) [Chorus – full band crescendo, harmonized vocals, driving rhythm] Some souls don’t cross by coincidence They collide with intention, no defense I don’t believe we met by accident You’re the one my heart was meant to spend [Outro – fading acoustic guitar, soft pedal steel fade] My heart knows what my mind can’t say You’re the one that changed my way
