Rocco Deluca & The Burden - When You Learn To Sing lyrics

rate me

<BR>

A father can give you his words <br>

But words are just symbols for things. <br>

And after he's gone <br>

That's when you learn to sing. <br>

<br>

A mother can give you her breast <br>

But soon that's all she'll bring. <br>

And when she's left <br>

That's when you learn to sing. <br>

<br>

People live this life. <br>

I know we lie and deceive. <br>

It's learned that I'm blind. <br>

I just wanted <br>

To believe. <br>

<br>

And when your love grabs your arm <br>

And whispers the sweetest of lies <br>

And all those around you, they wonder <br>

How can you've been surprised. <br>

It's written in her eyes <br>

That hope is a dangerous thing. <br>

Nightingale, you stagger and fail <br>

Is that how you've learned how to sing? <br>

<br>

People live this life. <br>

I know you lie and deceive. <br>

I'm not so blind. <br>

I just wanted... <br>

<br>

People live the world. <br>

I know you hurt and deceive. <br>

I'm not so blind. <br>

I just wanted <br>

And I want, and I want <br>

To believe. <br>

<br>

And I want to believe. <i>[x7]</i> <br>

And I just wanted...<br>

<BR><BR>
