[Verse 1]
No one ever tells you what it's like to love and lose
How it feels to waken and have breakfast with the blues
How to go on livin', how to face another day
No one ever tells you the way

[Verse 2]
No one ever tells you how it feels to walk alone
Listenin' for those footsteps through the echo of your own
Suddenly it hits you, all those dreams weren't worth a dime
'Cause no one ever tells you in time

[Bridge]
Long beforе the icy winds of winter
Autumn tells thе swallows, "Time to fly"
Why did he pretend till the bitter end
Till it broke my heart to say goodbye?

[Verse 3]
No one ever tells you that it's just another fling
No one ever warns you when your heart begins to sing
Someone tells you later all is fair in love and war
But no one ever tells you before

[Bridge]
Long before the icy winds of winter
Autumn tells the swallows, "Time to fly"
Why did he pretend till the bitter end
Till it broke my heart to say goodbye?
[Verse 3]
No one ever tells you that it's just another fling
No one ever warns you when your heart begins to sing
Someone tells you later all is fair in love and war
But no one ever tells you before
