The Scientist - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry

You don't know how lovely you are

I had to find you, tell you I need you

Tell you I set you apart

And tell me your secrets and ask me your questions

No, let's go back to the start

Running in circles, coming up tails

Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy

And it's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

And no one ever said it'd be this hard

Oh, take me back to the start

I was just guessing at numbers and figures

Pulling your puzzles apart

Questions of science, science and progress

Do not speak as loud as my heart

And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me

Oh, and I rush to the start

Running in circles, chasing our tails

Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy

And it's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

And no one ever said it'd be so hard

I'm going back to the start

Oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh-ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry

You don't know how lovely you are
