Christopher Cross - Words of Wisdom lyrics

I can hear your voice and I have no choice 'Cause the pain is too deep inside And the hurt of a love that is lost has no cure But the love of another heart Your friends try and say it will all get better They say that they know how you feel But your heart isn't sure 'cause it knows what it heard All the things that it read in the letter All the words of wisdom Never seem to ease the pain All the words of wisdom sound the same All the lies of kindness Oh that sweet refrain But you pay the price for the joy that it brings 'Cause you hear the sound of her name And the morning tries to save you From the shadows of your heart They dance and kiss as you reminisce And it's tearing you apart
