Love Is The Lesson

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 ain't the way that I ought a be living

Ooh, one of these days I'm gonna listen
Ooh, whoa, life is a teacher and love is a lesson
Yes it is, oh yeah

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

Ooh, one of these days I'm gonna listen
Ooh, whoa, life is a teacher and love is a lesson
Love is a lesson, children

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?

Ohh, love is the lesson, yes it is
Life is a teacher, love is the lesson, yeah
Oh, yes it is

Love is the lesson
Life is a teacher, love is the lesson, yeah
You gotta know love is the lesson

Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
Ooh, love is the lesson
