Standing on my own It didn't mean that much to me I thought I had it all I didn't see the mystery I stood the test of time And took the step to find Love's great adventure I spoke a million words They didn't mean that much to me They rang around my head Like empty tuneless harmonies Love's great adventure's mine Lying side by side It didn't mean that much to me I started to enjoy The poetry and symphonies I took it in my stride I hailed the day I tried Love's great adventure A fool who couldn't see It didn't mean that much to me I couldn't understand That's how the game is meant to be Love's great adventure's mine Love's great adventure Love's great adventure Love's great adventure, oh Standing on my own It didn't mean that much to me I thought I had it all I didn't see the mystery I stood the test of time I took the step to find Love's great adventure's mine
