Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Built an opera house for you in the deepest jungle

...

And I walked across its stage singing with my eyes closed

...

I've got a love for you I just can't escape

All of my love for you cuts me like barbed wire

...

I was meant to love you and always keep you in my life

...

I was meant to love you,

I knew I loved you at first sight

...

If I abandoned love I'd be a man without dreams

...

I'd rather be out there staring death right between its eyes now

...

And I can still hear the sound of you crying through the night

There in the opera house with no one else for miles

...

I was meant to love you and always keep you in my life

I was meant to love you

I knew I loved you at first sight

...

I was meant to love you and always keep you in my life

...

I was meant to love you

I knew I loved you at first sight

...
