Select language to translate this lyric
Didn't know what I was missing
'Til I caught sight of you
Melt down my ammunition
I willingly diffuse
And you're something else
Keeping my head out of my head
I curse my old familiar way
Of bracing for the weather
On a perfectly clear day
And you're something else, something else
Gardenia, out of my reach
Gardenia, why'd you have to open yourself to me?
My hour of temporary blindness
Stunned like a sleepwalk slapped awake
Wrestling my leaning to define this
Learning to live with extra space
And you're something else, something else
Gardenia, out of my reach
Gardenia, why'd you have to open yourself to me?
And there is no word grand enough
For this extraordinary love that has overcome
Didn't know what I was missing
'Til I caught sight of you
Now everything looks different
So wonderfully different, different
Gardenia, out of my reach, yeah
Gardenia, why'd you have to open yourself to me?
Why'd you have to open yourself to me?
Oh yeah! Gardenia
