Song Lyrics

For a mighty oak to grow
You got to plant a tiny seed
Words are all you know
Body language is what you need

Now I can barely breathe
Your fragrance fills my lungs
It's time we started speaking in tongues
Speaking in tongues

It's time to start a fire
And I know we'll make it good
We're overflowing with desire
You got the spark — I got wood

We got to let our voices soar
More than any song we've ever sung
It's time that we start speaking in tongues
Speaking in tongues

There are things we learn by knowledge
There are things we learn by heart
There are things we learn at the end of life
There are things we learn at the start

There are things we learn by science
There are things we learn by art
There are things we learn from the fires of love
An erection of the heart
An erection of the heart

There are things we learn by knowledge
There are things we learn by heart
There are things we learn at the end of life
There are things we learn at the start

There are things we learn from science
There are things we learn from art
There are things we learn from the fires of love
An erection of the heart
An erection of the heart

For a mighty oak to grow
You got to plant a tiny seed
Words are all you know
Body language is what you need

We got to let our voices soar
More than any song we've ever sung
It's time that we start speaking in tongues
Speaking in tongues
