[Verse 1]
I never thought that school would do me any good
And so I never used to listen
I never learned the dates when who did what to whom
And so my education's missing
But though I may not be over smart
You're a lesson I learned by heart
[Chorus]
And I don't want to have to learn to live without you
Won't you stay with me
I don't want to have to learn to live without you
If you leave me now I don't want to learn
[Verse 2]
I never thought the day would come
When I heard myself saying how much I needed someone
From you I have learned the truth about myself
And I need nobody else
So though I may not be over smart
You're a lesson I learned by heart
[Chorus]
And I don't want to have to learn to live without you
Won't you stay with me
I don't want to have to learn to live without you
If you leave me now I don't want to learn
[bridge]
Thinking more about you everyday
No-one told me love would be this way
Please don't go away
[instrumental break]
[Verse 3]
'cause I'm not too blind to see
What a difference you've made to me
And though I may not be very smart
You're a lesson that I've learned by heart
[Chorus]
And I don't want to have to learn to live without you
Won't you stay with me
I don't want to have to learn to live without you
If you leave me now
Don't want to have to learn to live without you
Won't you stay with me
I don't want to have to learn to live without you
If you leave me now
I don't want to learn
Don't want to have to learn to live
Don't want to have to spend my time alone
[Outro]
No no no
I don't wanna don't wanna don't wanna
Learn to stay away from you
Please please
