When you learn how to love

I loved I lost

I swung I missed

And still kept playing

You stole my heart

And by default

You're still standing

And you can pat me on my back

And send me on my way

You'll see me smile

But all the while I'm torn up

And I don't wish you pain (pain)

But I don't wish you well (well)

'Cause you deserve the reign (reign)

To see how it fails

When you learn how to love

You're gonna cry for me

But it's gonna be too late

It's gonna be too late

When you learn how to love

You're gonna breathe for me

But it's gonna be too late

It's gonna be too late

When you learn how to love

You knew me well

But still it felt

You were my stranger

My tears you swam across

To let me down

And through the fog

I thought I saw your helping hand

But my eyes were closed

And it felt a broken heart

All you might have loved

You'll never know till it's gone

So far baby now

Now all you got is your

Tear drops on your needy heart

So cry for me
