Story Behind The Song
I had just completed the music to this song and went out for a walk on a misty night and was giving thought to the lyrics. What came into mind was of two strangers at fates door being brought together ala the movie Casablanca and Sleepless In Seattle. Very fim "noir".
Song Description
The lyrics tell a story of two complete stangers who meet by chance on a misty night before sunrise. It is karma or fate that brings them together and if there eyes had never met they would pass like two ships in the night. This is the beginning of a love story.

Lyrics
If Our Eyes Had Never Met Registered/Copyright
Lyrics by
Felice Kaye-Cooper
Verse 1 (Signa)
The streets were empty without light
We passed like strangers in the night
If Our Eyes Had Never Met
There only would be regret(s)
Verse 2
I knew this moment would not end
And we'd be lovers not just friends (To Coda)
Out of the mist you called my name
Now life will never be the same
Chorus 1
As the sun began to rise
I could see love in your eyes
There's no doubt that it was real
By the way my heart feels
The stage was set my love
For how we met my love
Like two souls alone at sea
Fate led (brought) you home to me (D.S. al Coda)
II
It's part of the (a) game
Why two lovers found their way
It was destiny
Guiding you here magically
Now I know the cards were right
When they foretold of this night
It was written in the sand
Don't try to understand
(Musical Bridge)
If you try to comprehend my friend
Then you tempt fate once again
In the darkness from (up) above
We found the meaning of love (a reason to love)
Repeat Chorus to D.S. al Coda (As the sun....)
To Coda
Coda:
If Our Eyes Had Never Met
There only would be deep regret(s)
(Chords To End)
