The Heart Is Slow To Learn

Kiri Te Kanawa

the heart is slow to learn
the heart is slow to learn
these feelings that I feel
are foolish but their real
I'm wise enough to see this love will never be
I'd try to let us know theres still no letting go

I know it's mad and you won't return
but still as I have said
the heart is slow to learn

I'll never love as I have loved you
why is love crule I wish I knew
say what you will, it doesn't matter
untill I die there's only you
untill I die there's only you

the heart is slow to learn
the heart is slow to learn
you'd think there would be a way
to shut out yesterday
perhaps if I just thought
of all the times we fought
I'd try to let us know theres still no letting go

I know it's mad and you won't return
but then as I have said the heat is slow to learn

I'll never love as I have loved you
why is love crule I wish I knew
say what you will it doesn't matter
untill I die theres only you
untill I die theres only you
the heart is slow to learn
