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
[Chorus]
Ooh, I was meant to love you
And always keep you in my life
Ooh, I was meant to love you
I knew I loved you at first sight
[Verse 2]
If I abandoned love, I'd be a man without dreams (ooh)
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
[Chorus]
Ooh, I was meant to love you
And always keep you in my life
Ooh, I was meant to love you
I knew I loved you at first sight
[Outro]
Ooh, I was meant to love you
And always keep you in my life
Ooh, I was meant to love you
I knew I loved you at first sight
[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Ooh, I was meant to love you And always keep you in my life Ooh, I was meant to love you I knew I loved you at first sight [Verse 2] If I abandoned love, I'd be a man without dreams (ooh) 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 [Chorus] Ooh, I was meant to love you And always keep you in my life Ooh, I was meant to love you I knew I loved you at first sight [Outro] Ooh, I was meant to love you And always keep you in my life Ooh, I was meant to love you I knew I loved you at first sight Explain Request ×
