I never knew love could be like this
I never knew love could be like this
I go around thinking I'm a genius
But I never knew love could be like this
Cartography is not my métier
And the mountainsides of daydreams too steep for me today
Lovers lost before us and most did not return
The few so hale and hardy now broken down and burned
I never knew love could be like this
Was anyone else but me surprised
How anything happens is mysterious
And I never knew love could be like this
Biography is all they understand
No semaphore or secrets or just good old pretend
Now they all are sleeping but this keeps us awake
These words they need safekeeping
A promise not to break
I never knew love could be like this
I never knew love could be like this
I go around thinking I'm a genius
But I never knew love
Has there ever been love
Oh I never knew love could be like this
