The heart is slow to learn

Why do we risk all we have

Why give into the lure that calls
From everything forbidden

What attracts us to the night

And captures us however hard we fight

It seems the heart is slow to learn

no one can tell it what to do
It never learns from its mistakes
what twists and turns it puts... us through

Oh yes, the heart is slow to learn

So every lesson is in vain
It goes the way it wants to go
regardless of the pain

And so, I foolishly go on

Ignoring all the signs
Dismissing all the doubt inside me
For the heart is slow to learn
No one can tell it what to do
It never learns from its mistakes
that's why it finally breaks
And overpowers you

Some passions never let you go

Some fires never cease to burn
It shouldn't come as a surprise
That the heart is slow to learn

The heart is slow to learn

The heart is slow... to learn
