Dark Side - Michael McDonald

On this question of love and trust

I used to think us much too serious

That was long before

I lay drowning in the thought of you

Heart to the flame is an easy throw

So much more than first we know

Since you have to lose all you have to give to learn the truth

Some things we learn come easy

Then there’s the things that don’t

We’re bound to learn the hard way

Love has no pride

We all know love is blind

And we see what we want

We find out all too soon

Love has a dark side

You learn to give up to let go

A heart can always find it’s way back home

But now you’re different

'Cause you’ve been there

And now you know

Some things we learn come easy

Then there’s the things that don’t

How we love to learn the hard way

Love has no pride

We all know love is blind

And we see what we want

We find out all too soon

Love has a dark side

Some things we learn come easy

Then there’s the things that don’t

How we love to learn the hard way

Love has no pride

We all know love is blind

And we see what we want

We find out all too soon

Love has a dark side

Sometimes we see it coming

Sometimes we don’t

If there’s time to walk away

We just let it ride

We finally reach the point of no turning back

You bet you’re silver lining

Love has a dark side

Just beyond Eden’s gate

Lies the dark and frozen waste

Somehow we’re bound to cross the range of feel

It takes one to make the other seem real

No, no, baby

Some things we learn come easy

Then there’s the things that don’t

We love to learn the hard way

Love has no pride

We all know love is blind

We only see what we want

You’re bound to learn somehow

Love has a dark side

Some things we learn come easy

Then there’s the things that don’t

We love to learn the hard way

Love has no pride

We all know love is blind

We only see what we want

You’re bound to learn somehow

Love has a dark side

Sometimes we see it coming

Sometimes we don’t

While there’s time to walk away

We just let it ride

We finally reach the point of no turning back

You’re bound to walk the line

Love has a dark side
