Australian pop duo Savage Garden released a string of smash hits in the late ‘90s, but 1997’s “Truly Madly Deeply” became their signature song. Vocalist Darren Hayes reflected on the song saying:
I remember that I wanted ‘Truly Madly Deeply’ to be a hidden bonus track—I thought it was too personal...
[Verse 1]
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath, truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong, I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on...
[Pre-Chorus]
A new beginnin', a reason for livin'
A deeper meanin', yeah
[Chorus]
Well, I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
[Verse 2]
And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky
I'll make a wish, send it to heaven then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of...
[Pre-Chorus]
The highest powers in lonely hours (Lonely hours)
The tears devour you
[Chorus]
Well, I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
[Bridge]
Oh, can you see it, baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right before you
All that you need will surely come
Hoo, hoo, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath, truly, madly, deeply do (I love you)
Mmm, mmm
[Chorus]
I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Well, I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
Well, I want to live like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh, yeah
Oh, oh
La-da-da-da-da-da, la-la-la-la
La-da-da-da-da-da, la-la-la
Ooh-ooh

A really sincere and special and emotional song. There was something really emotional about the combination of this very naive intention and a very deep feeling, which was how I felt when I was living in a one-bedroom apartment in Kings Cross, with Daniel Jones, making this album. We were incredibly...
