You Are My Destiny Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Jessica0K9 

Cover art for You Are My Destiny lyrics by Paul Anka

I’ve always thought that this song was about obsession rather than love. The “ That’s what you are” sounds condescending to me and like he’s saying that she’s nothing BUT his love. He also never flips it around and says that he’s also her destiny and etc. Plus the overall feel of the song seems very powerful and intimidating and possessive instead of romantic or heartfelt.

My Interpretation
Negative
Subjective
Disgust
Obsession
Condescension
Possessiveness
Intimidation
Non-romantic
