After a few more listens it sounds like a mash up of I Feel Better, Visit Me and World. In fact Im sure you could sing "If we could buy it now,how long will it last" over the outro.

Good song though. is it due to be released as a proper single? Im confused, they made a video but its a free download. its great that Barney has got his hands in various projects but they dont seem to get much publicity.

Never Cry Another Tear is one of my favourite Barney related albums ever, but (IMO) i dont know how well it did and I thought Summer Days and This Is Home would have made exellent singles (if marketed well).

rant over.:uhoh:

The physical single is dead, I'm afraid. I don't even remember when I bought my last CDSingle...

I can't make up all the lyrics.:uhoh: :shrug: Will anybody help?

This is what I have:

When I met you I didn't know what love was (2x) Now all my lonely nights are through And all my dreams are come true I know ........... And I am in a state of grace When I wake I start to celebrate The truth is just a dawning (?) When I met you etc. You tought me everything I need to know (4x) Now through the hazes shines the sun My way ................. are almost done And .......................... to waste Is now in a state of grace When I wake I start to celebrate I'm just so glad this hour is dawning When I met you I didn't know what love was You tought me everything I need to know

I was unsure about that part too---that sounds possible too. Anyone else want to try?

Okay, then it is so far:

Leather girl, do you know what that line 'I know my name I know my number'can mean? Has it something to do with a telephonenumber?

I certainly hear 'no name', that's why I changed that. Leather girl, do you know what that line 'I know no name I know my number'can mean? Has it something to do with a telephonenumber?

Maybe...then again lyrics are very vague...if Bernard wrote these (or some of it)...it's no wonder we wonder about things like this. I wish the official lyrics were published somewhere. I don't even know what I hear any more.

Me neither. I hear 'my name' in the one and 'no name' in the other version and 'and if this man was laid to waste'can also be 'if this land was laid to waste'. But one thing is clear, i love this song very very very much!

I changed in a previous post 'I know no name I know my number' because it's definitely 'my name', you were right, Leather girl. And it means something like: I know who I am.
