[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Gone swirling tears came she went today
~#**************#~
Down fallen years go by
~#**************#~
No place in learning how to cry
~#**************#~
I went astray
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Understanding is a virtue hard to come by
~#**************#~
You can teach me how to love
~#**************#~
If youll only try
~#**************#~
So please
~#**************#~
Dont give up so soon
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Sorry that I hurt her I went astray
~#**************#~
Hurt her mind and broke her heart
~#**************#~
But theres no stopping once you start
~#**************#~
She went away
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Understanding is a virtue hard to come by
~#**************#~
You can teach me how to love
~#**************#~
If youll only try
~#**************#~
So please
~#**************#~
Dont give up so soon
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
I never knew you the way you are
~#**************#~
The blinded bird is not sincere
~#**************#~
His flyings done from only fear
~#**************#~
Hes lost his star
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Understanding is a virtue hard to come by
~#**************#~
You can teach me how to love
~#**************#~
If youll only try
~#**************#~
So please
~#**************#~
Dont give up so soon
