Текст песни The Lesson

This is the lesson

Taught to me

A long time ago

At my mother's knee

She said, child, someday

Someone who loves you

Will make you cry

Though he loves you

He'll hurt you til

You feel you could die

But if he says forgive me

Forgive if you can

For you are his woman

And he is your man

When you're looking for roses

There are thorns you will meet

And remember, my child

Without any thorns

The rose can't be sweet

Well it's finally happened

Now it's my turn to cryVikki Carr - The Lesson - http://ru.motolyrics.com/vikki-carr/the-lesson-lyrics.html

Oh, my darling

You've hurt me

Til I feel I could die

But you're saying forgive me

And I understand

For I am your woman

And you are my man

Don't tell me about heartache

I've cried my share of tears

I've had my share of rain

But after the storm

No rain will appear

I just know when you hold me

My whole world is complete

And the lesson is clear

Without any thorns

The rose can't be sweet

The lesson is clear

Without any thorns

The rose can't be sweet
