Lyrics Michael Franks – Learning What Love Means

Remember the first night we met?
Your eyes convinced me to forget
How easily love can fail
Revive my hope I never could

Heartaches, and making the most obvious mistakes
Hindsight reveals is learning what love means
‘Til you I once thought I knew the subject
But I guess I’m still just learning what love means

Poets are right time slips away
It seems like only yesterday
That I held you for the first time
More perfect love than this is there?
Compared to ours it can’t compare
And I’ve been happy since that day I made you mine

It’s a slow dance balancing desire with romance
How high it feels this learning what love means
‘Til you I once thought I knew the subject
But I guess I’m still just learning what love means
