Destiny's a funny girl, she took me by surprise
And fate, I hear, is back in town to revel in disguise
Like a fool, I've loved and lost and now I've found you in this stranger town
I wonder if this meeting's by design

And so I succumb to cinnamon, sweat, and rum
Laughing with stars in your eyes and your hair undone
And I pray one day our stars align
So I might hold you one more time
And succumb to cinnamon, sweat, and rum

It seemed that luck was on my side, you took my breath away
Alive and well, you guided me
A beacon through the grey
Like a fool, I've loved and lost and now I've found you in this stranger town
Letting you go was never a choice of mine

And so I succumb to cinnamon, sweat, and rum
Laughing with stars in your eyes and your hair undone
And I pray one day our stars align
So I might hold you one more time
And succumb to cinnamon, sweat, and rum

Like a child, I was swept away
Held by stormy ocean's gaze
And I swear the night caught fire around us

And so I succumb to cinnamon, sweat, and rum
Laughing with stars in your eyes and your hair undone
And I pray one day our stars align
So I might hold you one more time
And succumb to cinnamon, sweat, and rum
