The Lesson

It's a lesson to be learned No one said it's easy to love Everyone gets burned When the heat is turned way up It's the time When you're out on your own Your heart turns to stone For a while... You can't see That there's light up ahead All you know is the darkness inside... Sit alone in your room Read a book from start to the end Stare up at the moon Don't return a call from a friend It's the time When you're out on your own Your heart turns to stone For a while... You can't see That there's light up ahead All you know is the darkness inside... It's a lesson to be learned Listen hard to the sound of your voice Catch the tremble and the urge You're convinced that you have no choice But in time When you're out on your own Your heart turns to stone For a while You can't see That there's light up ahead All you know is the darkness inside... Ooohhhh, yeaaaahhhh...
