“Chance Encounter” is a tender, wistful love story wrapped in the gentle embrace of Irish folk melodies and dreamy pop textures. It captures that fleeting, heart-stopping moment when two strangers cross paths—and everything changes. Set against the precise tick of a clock (9:33 AM, to be exact), the song paints a cinematic portrait of love at first sight: the dropped book, the shy smile, the breathless exchange that feels like divine intervention. There’s a quiet magic in its details—the scent of her hair, the warmth of her hand—that lingers long after the final note fades. It’s the kind of song that makes you remember your own “chance encounter,” or long for one that might still be waiting around the next corner.
What makes “Chance Encounter” especially poignant is its delicate fusion of tradition and atmosphere. The lilting strains of Irish folk—think soft bodhrán rhythms and airy tin whistle echoes—blend seamlessly with ethereal pop harmonies and reverb-drenched vocals, creating a soundscape that feels both grounded and otherworldly. Though Aaron Wilson originally penned the song during his university years, he always sensed it needed a voice with a certain luminous vulnerability. That’s why he entrusted it to Lyric McKenna, whose delivery carries just the right balance of innocence and longing to bring this bittersweet memory to life. It’s not just a love song—it’s a preserved moment, suspended in time like a photograph kissed by morning light.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My story begins with a chance encounter,
Without which I would not have found her.
The moment I seen her, pastures became greener,
And I was in love.
[Chorus – Soft Swell]
Every detail about her, burnt into my mind,
Like the way she smiled as she asked me the time.
It was nine thirty three, heaven had visited me,
And I was in love. (ohhh… love…)
[Verse 2]
Her beauty, her innocence, her entire look,
The way she blushed when she dropped her book.
Like no other girl, she became my world,
And I was in love. (my world…)
[Bridge 1]
I returned the book that she was reading,
She thanked me and I stopped breathing.
No sweeter words, had I ever heard,
And I was in love. (so sweet…)
And I was in love. (forever…)
[Verse 3]
The touch of her hand, the smell of her hair,
I close my eyes and I am there.
No girl before, had affected me more,
And I was in love. (I’m still there…)
[Verse 4 – Final Reflection]
My story ends with a chance encounter,
The very same one with which I found her.
So ended my visit to heaven, it was nine thirty seven,
And I was in love. (heaven…)
[Final Chorus – Full Texture, Then Fade]
Her beauty, her innocence, her entire look,
The way she blushed when she dropped her book.
Like no other girl, she became my world,
And I was in love. (my only love…)
I returned the book that she was reading,
She thanked me and I stopped breathing.
No sweeter words, had I ever heard,
And I was in love. (so sweet…)
And I was in love.
(I was already ... forever ... always…)
[Outro: Fading Memory]
The touch of her hand, the smell of her hair…
I close my eyes… and I am there…
