When the site was found we laid the foundations
down
It didn't take long before they came back tumbling
down
Don't build at night, you need a little light
How else you gonna see what it's gonna be like?
So we picked up our tools and we worked in the
morning light
With the last stone placed wasn't it a wonderful
sight?
But it fell back down and scattered all around
Anything passes when you need glasses
My monument
it fell down
Work all of my days for this kind of praise
It fell down
All I want to do is see you again
Is that too much to ask for?
I just want to see your sweet smile
Smiled the way it was before
Well I'll try not to hold you
And I'll try not to kiss you
And I won't even touch you
All I want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true
I remember the days when we'd walk through the
woods
And sit on a bench for a while
I treasure the way we used to laugh and play
And look in each others eyes
You can keep me at a distance if you don't
trust my resistance
But I swear I won't touch you
All I want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true
Well I know five years is a long time
And that times change (oh that times change)
But I think that you will find
People are basically the same (basically the same)
If the water's still flowing, we can go for a
swim
And do the things we used to do
And if I'm reluctant you can pull me in
And we can relive our youth
Oh but we'll stay friendly like sister and
brother
Though I think I still love you
All I want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true?
I've read more than a hundred books
Seen love mentioned many thousand times
But despite all the places I've looked
It's still no clearer it's just not enough
I'm still no nearer the meaning of love
Noted down all my observations
Spent an evening watching television
Still I couldn't say with precision
Know it's a feeling and it comes from above
But what's the meaning, the meaning of love?
The meaning of love
Tell me the meaning of love
From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
But I could be wrong, I'm just not sure you see,
I've never been in love before
Next I asked several friends of mine
If they could spare a few minutes of their time
Their look suggested that I'd lost my mind
Tell me the answer, my Lord high above
Tell me the meaning, the meaning of love
The meaning of love
Tell me the meaning of love
From the notes that I've made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
But I could be wrong, I'm just not sure you see,
I've never been in love before
Tell me the meaning of love

Excerpts from
My Secret Garden - Instrumental
Someone will call
Something will fall
And smash on the floor
Without reading the text
Know what comes next
Seen it before
And it's painful
Things must change
We must rearrange them
Or we'll have to estrange them
All that I'm saying
The game's not worth playing
Over and over again
You're the one I like best
You retain my interest
You're the only one
If it wasn't for you
Don't know what I'd do
Unpredictable like the sun
And the rainfall
Things must change
We must rearrange them
Or we'll have to estrange them
All that I'm saying
The game's not worth playing
Over and over again
