lyrics

IT’S LIKE THAT CHINESE LEGEND THAT I READ WHEN I WAS LITTLE
THE STORY ALL ABOUT THE INVISIBLE RED STRING
THE GODS'LL TIE IT ROUND YOUR ANKLE WHEN YOU'RE BORN AND
IT'LL
LEAD YOU PAST TOM, DICK AND HARRY
TO THE ONE THAT YOU WILL MARRY
TO THAT ONE EXTRAORDINARY
PERSON WHO WILL BE YOUR EVERYTHING
AND IT HAPPENS IN A MOMENT
IT’S AS IF YOU'VE ALWAYS KNOWN IT
AND THAT IS WHAT I'VE BEEN BROUGHT UP BELIEVING
AND IT'S BEEN LIKE THIS FOREVER
WITH THE STRINGS NO ONE CAN SEVER
A TAPESTRY THE FATES ARE ALWAYS WEAVING

THE TORAH TELLS US THAT OUR PERFECT SOULMATE IS PREDESTINED BEFORE WE'RE BORN THE MATCH IS MADE BY GOD ABOVE
AND THOUGH IT TAKES A WHILE TO FIND, BASHERT MUST NOT BE
QUESTIONED
EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE SICK OF WAITING
AND YOU'VE GONE THROUGH YEARS OF DATING
ALL AT ONCE A FASCINATING
GIRL SHOWS UP AND YOU'RE IN LOVE

Hope
AND IT HAPPENS IN A MOMENT

Charles
YEAH, IT HAPPENS IN A MOMENT

Hope
IT’S AS IF YOU'VE ALWAYS KNOWN IT

Charles
JUST AS IF YOU’VE ALWAYS KNOWN IT

Hope
AND THAT IS WHAT I'VE BEEN BROUGHT UP BELIEVING

Charles
I KINDA THOUGHT THE SAME THING

Hope
AND IT'S BEEN LIKE THIS FOREVER

Charles
IT’S BEEN LIKE THIS FOREVER

Hope
WITH THE STRINGS NO ONE CAN SEVER

Charles
THE STRINGS NO ONE CAN SEVER

Hope
A TAPESTRY THE FATES ARE ALWAYS WEAVING

Charles
BUT IN HEBREW SCHOOL THEY TEACH YOU JUST BECAUSE A MATCH IS MADE IN HEAVEN
DOESN'T MEAN A MARRIAGE WILL BE JUST A PIECE OF CAKE
“SURE, YOU KNOW, BASHERT,” MY RABBI SAID TO ME, “IT'S DESTINY
BUT MARRIAGE IS A LOT OF WORK, A LOT OF GIVE AND TAKE”
MY RABBI TOLD ME “CHARLIE BOY, THIS BRINGING OF TWO PEOPLE
INTO ONE UNITED MARRIAGE, IT'S AS DIFFICULT AS ANYTHING--
AS HARD AS MOVING MOUNTAINS, LIKE PARTING THE RED SEA”
PULLING A RED STRING
RED SEA
RED STRING

Hope
RED SEA
RED STRING
IT HAPPENS IN A MOMENT
IN AN INSTANT
IN NO TIME AT ALL
