NO ONE EVER TOLD ME

Love is perfect
That's what I used to believe.
No one ever told me,
That love meant to deceive.

I thought that it was laughter,
And playing in the rain.
No one ever told me,
About the hurt and the pain.

I thought that it was sunshine,
And roses all of red.
No one ever told me,
About the angry words that are often said.

I thought that it was rainbows,
High up in the sky.
No one ever told me,
That it's often just a lie.

No one ever told me,
Oh why didn't they let me know?
That when you are in love,
You usually must let go.
