He said John, I do believe
I've seen Virginia to the end
I find myself about as far as I can go
Culminated late last night
From pointed fingers starting fires
that burned since years ago
We've fallen out of love

I said friend, you learn to love
to feel the words you hate to hear
Just shut your mouth
and then the truth comes stinging clear
You find you're wrong
and it's your problems all along
And then you love someone,
but not till then
You love someone

Haunted by computer screens
The world around him
Grass was greener on the other end
She could see it in his eyes
The love had left, or it had died
And she was left that way
With nothing left for her to say

So she said love, you learn to love
to feel the words you hate to hear
Just shut your mouth
and then the truth comes stinging clear
You find you're wrong
and it's your problems all along
And then you love someone,
but not till then
You love till then you love

It took love to finally see
the pointed fingers back at me
A silent mouth,
a broken heart,
a sword retired
A silent mouth,
a broken heart,
a sword retired

So a sword retired
It's a sword retired
Yes, a sword retired
It's a sword retired
It's a sword (oh)
It's a sword retired (oh)
It's a sword (oh)
It's a sword retired (oh)

I said love, you learn to love
to feel the words you hate to hear
Just shut your mouth
and then the truth comes stinging clear
You find you're wrong
and it's your problems all along
And then you love someone,
but not till then
You love someone

Agreed.  Don't like either, so I'm happy to pass on this too.  PSD.


That was pretty blah. 5
Ignoring all the juvenile jokes about the name. I like this song - it's a little bit Billy Joel, but mostly, it's Ben Rector. "You learn to love to feel the words you hate to hear..."  Good quality music. I'm smiling and loving this. {#Sunny}
