He's Gonna Learn

The time'll come, there will be a day
When the sun'll rise and the blindness will end
But it'll be too late for him to say
I'm sorry, could we please start again?
Because with what's been said, the damage's done
Where once there was love, now there's none
The flame is cold, it has ceased to burn
It's over, the love has died, he's gonna learn

He's gonna learn what it means to be alone
Words can hurt too, in person or on the phone
He's gonna learn you can't treat love that way
Gotta take care of love or it will go away
He's gonna learn, he's gonna learn

One day he'll wake up and see that she's gone
He wonders what's left to do, sadness for a love
Never coming back from the the road it's on
No returning now, she's got what she's dreamed of
The joy she's been missing, the hugging and the kissing
Now she's found that special someone who's ready to listen
She's not looking back, that page has to turn
It's over, the love has died, and he's gonna learn
