Elton John - Written In The Stars (Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida)
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Tim Rice
Produced by Peter Collins and Wilbur Rimes
Duet with Leann Rimes
Available on the album Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida
I am here to tell you we can never meet again
Simple really, isn't it, a word or two and then
A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
You think of me or speak of me or wonder what befell
The someone you once loved so long ago so well
Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by
You don't have to ask me and I need not reply
Every moment of my life from now until I die
I will think or dream of you and fail to understand
How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand
Is it written in the stars
Are we paying for some crime
Is that all that we are good for
Just a stretch of mortal time
Is this God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But only for a day
Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide
No escape, no change of heart, no anyplace to hide
You are all I'll ever want, but this I am denied
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned
What it is to be in love and have that love returned

Like belladeballe, i finally found out who the artist of this song was about 5 years ago by using Amazon.* I had been looking for 30 some years for it!!*

...most likely because the words and music were written by Lesley Duncan

I loved this album when it came out- it has continued to be one of my very favorites- I am trying to convince my son to cover this song

Lesley Duncan borrowed John Lennon's fingerpicking from "Julia" and produced a timeless classic, here covered nicely by John.

You all might also try listening to Olivia Newton-John's rendition of this song and see what you think.
