Meaning of the Word

Gibb Barry

I tend to stumble into situations wrought with danger
You can't believe in all the things I can't begin to tell you
And if she gets to hear this song
And the meaning of the words
I'm in love with someone I believe is no longer waiting
I send my love to someone I will never see
It's living on
And she says goodbye
In the morning sun

So I wonder down each lonely lane that I might find her
And though the days turn into years, my love is just behind her
The kind of love she gave to me
The kind of love I'd never known
I know that somewhere in this world there's someone crying
I'm in love with something
I could never be
But it's living on
And she says goodbye
But she's never gone

Maybe at the end of my life we can say
That the heart of our love was that moment
It can never fade away
Or the meaning of the words

So I keep searching for a sign that she could still be near me
And I keep thinking of the night she came and stayed forever
And all the things I ever said
Are all the things she never heard
The night bird with the broken wing must keep on flying
And the man that has no other love
Has everything
And the key to life
Is remembering

I know at the end of my life I can say
That the heart of our love was that moment
It can never fade away
Or the meaning of the words
And until my dying day
I know the meaning of the word
