Key of F

Verse 1
Well I love to see you grinning, planting flowers in the air
I love to hear you singing, 'neath your crown of curly hair
and I love to join you howling at the moon
Tell me will you make your way home soon?

Chorus
Well it’s hard to learn the lesson when I still love you
Hard to hear the truth inside when I’m crying over you
Easy to feel lonesome and blue
Do you feel the same way too?
Hard to learn the lesson when I still love you

Verse 2
Well I hate the way I feel when I start thinking about the past.
To think I thought that this would be a love that would last 
A sudden storm can kill the tallest tree
Why did I let you slip away from me?
