No One Ever Tells You

No one ever tells you

What it's like to love and lose

How it feels to awaken

and have breakfast with the Blues

How to go on living

How to face another day

No, no one ever tells you the way

No one ever tells you

How it feels to walk alone

Listening for those footsteps

trough the echo of your own

Suddenly it hits you

All those dreams weren't worth a dime

'Cause no one ever tells you in time

Long before

the icy winds of winter

Autumn tells the swallows

Time to fly

So why do we pretend

'Till the bitter end

'Till it breaks our hearts

To say good-bye

Well, no one ever tells you

That it's just another fling

No one ever warns you

When your heart begins to sing

Someone tells you later

All is fair in love and war

But no one ever tells you before

Long before

our love boat's torn asunder

We can hear the thunder of the falls

So why do we go on

Sailing madly on

'Till all we had is gone

Beyond recall

Beyond recall

No one ever tells you

That it's just another fling

No one ever warns you

when your heart begins to sing

Someone tells you later

All is fair in love and war

But no one ever tells you before

It never comes easy

'Cause no one

No one, no one

Ever tells you

tells you

No one ever tells you before

No one ever tells you before
