You would have thought
That I'd have learnt
This all by now
It seems that I
Am here again
Someway somehow
Every time
The same old thing
Comes back around
If you don't learn to swim
Then you'll sink
And then you'll drown

I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then baby you will burn
I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then you'll probably burn

Is it my fault
If I choose to ignore
The things that you've
Told me once
Or twice before
Maybe I'd rather not
Understand
The things that I don't want
As a man

I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then baby you will burn
I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then you'll probably burn
