     Lately when I look into your eyes

It seemed like the likely thing 
          A9 
From the start you told me, yeah, I would be your queen

But never had I imagined such a feeling

You and  I      are destiny 
F#6 C#m9  G#m11 
I   know  now 
F#6      C#m9 
You were made for me 
A9 
   I can't control it 
C#m9                               A9          F#6 
     It's driving me - taken over me and I  Oh 
 
            C#m11
