Lyrics
Is it love or fate,or a dream lover.
Our feelings,only we understand
Is it love or fate,or at the wrong time
Searching for a spiritual connection
Matters of fate,no one knows
Our love,why has it become so fragile
Matters of fate,relying on each other
Our love,still needs effort to maintain
Is it love or fate,or a dream lover.
Our feelings,only we understand
Is it love or fate,or at the wrong time
Searching for a spiritual connection
Matters of fate,no one knows
Our love,why has it become so fragile
Matters of fate,relying on each other
Our love,still needs effort to maintain
Is it love or fate,or a dream lover.
Our feelings,only we understand
Is it love or fate,or at the wrong time
Searching for a spiritual connection
Matters of fate,no one knows
Our love,why has it become so fragile
Matters of fate,relying on each other
Our love,still needs effort to maintain
Is it love or fate,or a dream lover.
Our feelings,only we understand
Is it love or fate,or at the wrong time
Searching for a spiritual connection
