A fish was made to swim in the ocean A boat was made to sail on the sea As sure as there are stars above, I know, I know You were made for me You were made for me A grape was made to grow on a vine An apple was made to grow on a tree As sure as there are stars above, I know, I know You were made for me We'll have our quarrels And you'll upset me, but What can I do? You've been mine ever since I met you And I'll never leave you No I'll never leave you As sure as there's a heaven up above me From you I know I'll never be free As sure as there are stars above, I know, I know You were made for me A fish was made to swim in the ocean A boat was made to sail on the sea As sure as there are stars above, I know, I know You were made for me You were made for me A grape was made to grow on a vine An apple, an apple was made to grow on a tree As sure as there are stars above, I know, I know You were made for me We'll have our quarrels And you'll upset me, but What can I do? You've been mine ever since I met you And I'll never, never, never, never, never, never leave you As sure as there's a heaven up above me From you I know I'll never be free, no no As sure as there are stars above, I know, I know You were made for me
