Bilingual
I should have known from the start
That loving her was wrong all along
And looking back I can see
Her love could only bring me misery
If I'd been something more of a man
I would have stopped it before it began
But I was certain I knew the answers
And now my heart says take no more chances
Get out, get wise to the ways of the world
There's so much that your life can hold
My heart says get out, get wise to the ways of the world
You're much too young to plan for growing old

I should have known from the start
That all my fears inside were justified
I should have seen all along
The magic in her eyes was only lies
If I had stopped to think for a while
I might have seen through the warmth of her smile
But I was lonely the day I met her
Now I can only try to forget her
Get out, get wise to the ways of the world
There's so much that your life can hold
My heart says get out, get wise to the ways of the world
You're much too young to plan for growing old
Get out, get wise to the ways of the world
There's so much that your life can hold
My heart says get out, get wise to the ways of the world
You're much too young for growing old
My heart says you're much too young for growing old
