The heart is slow to learn The heart is slow to learn These feelings that I feel Are foolish but they're real I'm wise enough to see This love will never be And each day's like the last When living in the past I know it's mad and you won't return But then, as I have said The heart is slow to learn I'll live alone, as I have loved you Why is love cruel? I wish I knew! Say what you will, it doesn't matter Until I die, there's only you Until I die, there's only you The heart is slow to learn The heart is slow to learn You'd think there'd be a way To shut out yesterday Perhaps if I just thought Of all the times we fought I've tried all that but no There's just no letting go I know it's mad and you won't return But then, as I have said The heart is slow to learn Why is love cruel? I wish I knew! Say what you will It doesn't matter Until I die there's only you Until I die there's only you Why is love cruel? I wish I knew! Say what you will It doesn't matter Until I die there's only you Until I die there's only you. The heart is slow to learn
