The Meaning Of Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've read more than a hundred books
Seeing 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
Never been in love before
Never been in love before
Next i asked several friends of mine
If they could spare a few minutes of their time
Their looks suggested that I've 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...
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
Never been in love before
Never been in love before
The meaning of love
Tell me
The meaning of love
Tell me...
