Let This Be A Lesson To You - Michael Johnson

Isn’t it nasty, isn’t it sad

Don’t it make you wonder

Don’t it make you mad

Same old heartache, your best friend

Has come to visit once again

Your mistake was in the beginning

When you thought that she would last

But you weren’t looking and you weren’t listening

And when she left, you broke like glass

Let this be a lesson to you

Take this message to your heart

Love is gonna slip right through ya

You’d better watch it from the start

You thought you had yourself a true love

You thought she was in love with you

But you found out she was like the devil

She stole your heart, she broke it too

But there’s no telling who’s on the level, no

And there’s no way to know what’s real

Just remember how it all happened

And be sure that you know just how you feel

Let this be a lesson to you

Take this message to your heart

Love is gonna slip right through ya

You’d better watch it from the start
