Love Is The Lesson

[Verse 1] Out on the highway the traffic's congested The streets are infested with people Feels like I'm stuck in this automobile Trying to get through the eye of the needle I'm just wanting to find my place In a rat race that nobody's winning I'm just as guilty as anyone This isn't the way that I ought a be living [Chorus] Ooh, one of these days I'm going to listen Ooh, whoa, life is a teacher and love is a lesson Yes it is, oh yeah [Verse 2] Haven't we come a long way, baby? Since the things that they taught us in history Been all the way to the moon and back But the heart of the matter's a mystery We're all headed for a fiery crash And nobody knows when it's coming Just look at this helter skelter world Man, it's no wonder everyone's running [Chorus] [Verse 3] With crime in the street and the cold and the heat And the pain that the people are feeling Don't you all think it's time we all stood together And let love be the healer? [Chorus] [x2] Love is the lesson Life is a teacher, love is the lesson, yeah You got to know love is the lesson [Outro] Ooh, love is the lesson Ooh, love is the lesson Ooh, love is the lesson Ooh, love is the lesson
