Meant To Be

Arc North's song 'Meant To Be' delves into the complexities and uncertainties of romantic relationships. The lyrics express a deep yearning to connect with someone on a profound level, emphasizing the importance of mutual understanding and shared feelings. The repeated lines 'I want you to show me / How to get to know / Someone like you' and 'I want you to know me / Cause I know then you'll see / We can be true' highlight the desire for genuine connection and the hope that such a bond can lead to a true and lasting relationship.
