[Lyrics for Aimee Mann – The Scientist (Live)]
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
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh, let’s go back to the start
Running in circles, coming of tales
Heads are a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I’m going 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
So tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing of tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I’m going back to the start
It’s such a shame
It’s such a shame
