It Was You
Discover the Serendipity of Love in Trace Adkins' 'It Was You'
Lyrics
Some people say fallin' in love is purely chance
Some people believe that falling in love is based on random chance.
The random blend of time and place, circumstance
Love is often seen as a result of unpredictable factors such as timing and circumstances.
That couldn't be farther from the truth
Contrary to the belief in line 1, the singer disagrees and thinks love is not a matter of chance.
'Cause with you
The singer attributes the true nature of love to the presence of a specific person, "you."
It wasn't the stars in the sky
The singer recalls a moment when external elements like stars didn't influence their emotions.
That got to me that night
The stars in the sky were not the cause of the emotional impact during that particular night.
Or the music that we were dancing to
The music playing while they were dancing was not the sole reason for the emotional connection.
It wasn't the moon up above
The singer dismisses the moon's influence on their feelings at that moment.
That had me falling in love
The singer acknowledges that love wasn't solely triggered by the moon.
It was more than all those things alone could do
The singer believes that the combined effect of stars, music, and the moon couldn't match what "you" provided.
It was you
The culmination of all those elements resulted in falling in love with the specific person, "you."
I do believe we're all a part of some greater plan
The singer expresses a belief in a greater plan that involves everyone.
That only angels in our hearts can understand
Understanding this plan requires a heart touched by angelic qualities.
Somehow I know I'd found my place
The singer feels a sense of belonging and purpose upon encountering the person in question.
When I saw your face
The moment the singer saw the person's face, they felt a connection to the greater plan.
It wasn't the stars in the sky
Reiterating that the stars in the sky didn't play a crucial role in the emotional experience.
That got to me that night
The music during the dance also didn't singularly contribute to the emotional impact.
Or the music that we were dancing to
Similar to lines 7 and 8, emphasizing that external elements didn't define the moment.
It wasn't the moon up above
The moon's presence wasn't the decisive factor in falling in love.
That had me falling in love
A repetition, underscoring that love was more profound than the influence of individual elements.
It was more than all those things alone could do
Reiterating that the combined effect of elements couldn't match the impact of the person, "you."
It was you
Summarizing that the ultimate cause of falling in love was the specific person, "you."
