And Then You Love Someone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He said, "John, I do believe I've seen Virginia to the end
I find myself about as far as I can go
It 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 'til 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 and 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 'til then
You love 'til 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
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 'til then
You love someone"
