|
I drifted into the notion
|
that you were looking for me
|
I told myself that devotion
|
would flow from your heart to me
|
|
When I looked into your eyes
|
still no reflection did I see
|
of love light glowing within there
|
that I hoped there would be
|
|
And it's a hard lesson to learn my friend
|
a hard lesson to learn
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
'times you gonna get burned
|
|
I took a chance on emotion
|
washing my heart out to see
|
a single wave on the ocean
|
you feel so distant from me
|
And there's a shadow dark upon your smile
|
a sadness living in your eyes
|
storm clouds rolling in an outofdaught
|
guess I been living alive
|
|
And it's a hard lesson to learn my friend
|
hard lesson to learn
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
|
|
And it's a hard lesson to learn my friends
|
hard lesson to learn
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
|
|
I drifted into the notion
|
that you were looking for me
|
I told myself that devotion
|
would flow from your heart to me
|
But when I looked into your beautiful eyes
|
still no reflection did I see
|
of love light glowing within there
|
that I kind o' hoped there would be
|
|
And it's a hard lesson to learn my friends
|
hard lesson to learn
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
|
|
yeah, yeah,yeah
|
yeah, yeah oh
|
|
sometimes you gonna get what you want
|
sometimes you gonna get burned
