forgotten love
Etro Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You don't need many words
To leave me breathless
Only one off your tongue
The sweet sound that calms
The aching in my soul
You enter languid
As you shape your tones
You leave me breathless

You leave me breathless

I want to know if a soul will show to grow
Grow in my garden
Sow up the hardened soil of forgotten love
I want to know if a soul will show to grow
Grow in my garden
Sow up the hardened soil of forgotten love

Some days have passed me by
I'm still awake in the night
So much time
Spent waiting for this
Moment to come
What is there to fear?
The dream's clearly seen
It's the end of unbridled years
The end of unnecessary fear

I want to know if a soul will show to grow
Grow in my garden
Sow up the hardened soil of forgotten love
I want to know if a soul will show to grow
Grow in my garden
Sow up the hardened soil of forgotten love

I felt one day I was closer to love than I ever came
I was sure there was no mistake
And there I was all wrong again
The only thing for sure is that I'd been forgotten
I was swept away

I want to know if a soul will show to grow
Grow in my garden
Sow up the hardened soil of forgotten love
I want to know if a soul will show to grow

Grow in my garden
Sow up the hardened soil of forgotten love
