Gone swirling tears came, she went today
Down fallen years go by
No place in learning how to cry
I went astray
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
You can teach me how to love
If you'll only try, so please
Don't give up so soon

Sorry that I hurt her, I went astray
Hurt her mind and broke her heart
But there's no stopping once you start
She went away
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
You can teach me how to love
If you'll only try, so please
Don't give up so soon

I never knew you the way you are
The blinded bird is not sincere
His flying's done from only fear
He's lost his star
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
You can teach me how to love
If you'll only try, so please
Don't give up so soon
