Written in Sand

Intro

(Ya Habibi)

(Ya Hayati)

Verse 1

Midnight meets the dunes

Pale light spills from crescent moons

Soft winds start to sway

Moving where the palm trees pray

Pre-Chorus

Stars appear above

Whispering of ancient love

Sands shift like the tide

Nothing left for us to hide

Chorus

Maktub it was written in the dust (written)

Maktub meant to happen just for us (for us)

Destiny defined in the design of time

Bound together by a fate sublime

Maktub

Verse 2

Ciphers in the ink

Broken at the water's brink

Thirst calls to the soul

Making every fragment whole

Pre-Chorus

Stars appear above

Whispering of ancient love

Sands shift like the tide

Nothing left for us to hide

Chorus

Maktub it was written in the dust (written)

Maktub meant to happen just for us (for us)

Destiny defined in the design of time

Bound together by a fate sublime

Maktub

Bridge

Maybe it was meant to be

Maybe you were calling me

Calling through the desert haze

Found within the golden maze

Chorus

Maktub it was written in the dust (written)

Maktub meant to happen just for us (for us)

Destiny defined in the design of time

Bound together by a fate sublime

Maktub
