Verse 1: We built a tall, tall tower Towards the sun, towards the sun Took some words and built a wall And called it love, called it love And somewhere in all the talking The meaning faded out Chorus: Oh, I wonder When did it all stop making sense? I don't understand I remember we were so sure, so innocent Oh, but that was then Can we ever go back again? Can we ever go back? Verse 2: You're speaking a dead, dead language You don't sound like yourself I hope its just lost in translation So why don't you show? Don't try to tell And brick by brick we started crumbling Will I find you when it falls? Chorus: Oh, I wonder When did it all stop making sense? I don't understand I remember we were so sure, so innocent Oh, but that was then Can we ever go back? Don't hold your breath Look around Try to add it up Pin it down But you can't Chorus: Oh, I wonder When did it all stop making sense? I don't understand I remember we were so sure, so innocent Oh, but that was then Can we ever go back again? Can we ever go back?
