Learning To Love
Consumed By Fire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love ain't always gonna look just like
Just like you want it
Sometimes I know it won't work out
But you don't run from it
If you're holding on and your joy is gone
It's love that brings you back
If you're holding on and your joy is gone
It's love that brings you back

If you can take then you can give
Learn how to love and you learn how to live
It's never a waste of time or money to put your heart on the line for
Somebody
Learning to love
I'm still learning to love
I said it's never a waste of time or money
To put your heart on the line for somebody
I'm learning to love

Anybody can break your heart
But it takes someone to love it
So let me hear you if you've been down
And you came back from it
If you're holding on and your joy is gone
It's love that brings you back
If you're holding on and your joy is gone
It's love that brings you back

If you can take then you can give
Learn how to love and you learn how to live
It's never a waste of time or money
To put your heart on the line for somebody
I'm learning to love
I'm still learning to love
I said it's never a waste of time or money

To put your heart on the line for somebody
I'm learning to love

So let me hear you if you been down
And you came back
Yeah you came back
So let me hear you if you been down
And you came back from it
So let me hear you if you been down
And you came back
Yeah you came back
So let me hear you if you been down
And you came back from it
If you can take then you can give
If you can take then you can give
If you can take then you can give
Learning to love

If you can take then you can give
Learn how to love and you learn how to live
It's never a waste of time or money
To put your heart on the line for somebody
If you can take then you can give
Learn how to love and you learn how to live
It's never a waste of time or money
To put your heart on the line for somebody
I'm learning to love
Yeah I'm learning to love
I said it's never a waste of time or money
To put your heart on the line for somebody
I'm learning to love

So let me hear you if you been down
And you came back
Yeah you came back




So let me hear you if you been down
And you came back from it
