Please...tell me... What have your eyes seen In here...my dear... What secrets do they hold within Oh please...tell me... What has happened in this room Tell me, really... Is there something I should know...
She'd sell me down Down the river
Tell me, Violet, what love means today Tell me, Violet, what love means today
Love...love...
Please... tell me... Where the years disappeared In here... my dear... Did they pass by quietly
Or winged by the crying hues of The craze of time Were you held close Or were you set aside
She'd sell me down Down the river Let it all come out Oh please say it loud
Tell me, Violet, what love means today Tell me, Violet, what love means Today... today...
...but she stays silent...
Listen to yourselves You don't listen very hard You don't listen You don't listen to your heart Or the child within
Oh...we could've been a family We could've been a family
Tell me, Violet, what love means Tell me, Violet, what love means Tell me, Violet, what love means today Tell me, Violet, what love means Today...today... Today...today...
Love...love... Listen to your heart Listen to your heart Love...love...
