Verse2: Midnight in the sculpture garden
Underneath the cherry moon
We can make our beautiful secret

| Great song - the Sculpture Garden is a Minneapolis landmark, a large (about 10-acre?) park outside the Walker Art Center, free to the public for wandering around the sculptures. An early interview with Semisonic quoted Dan Wilson as saying he wanted to record "make-out music for the new millenium," and this appears to be about walking around the Sculpture Garden with your beloved and staying late into the night for just such a purpose... | |
