Patty Smyth
Grow So Wise
Oh I wish I was a liar
And I wish you were a fool
I wish I could avoid the fire
Of your eyes that burn so true
And I wish I had the answers
To the questions that you raise
And I want to hold you closer
As I watch you vanish in the haze
But all it takes is one night to realize
I'm afraid to let you go
And all it takes is one look to see that I
I'm a fool who will never know
That love can make you grow so wise
Love can make you grow so wise
Love's a dream and love's a lie
But love can make you grow so wise
Oh I'd like to see tomorrow
I'd like to forget today
I want to ease your sorrow
But I just don't know what to say
Except that all it takes is one night to realize
That the damage comes fast in the darkness
All it takes is one night to see that I
I'm about to break your heart
But love can make you grow so wise
Love can make you grow so wise
Love's a dream and love's a lie
But love will make you grow so wise
(Bridge)
But all it takes is one night to realize
I'm afraid to let you go
And all it takes is one look to see that I
I'm just a fool who will never know
That love can make you grow so wise
Love can make you grow so wise
Yes, you will bleed but you won't die
Cause love will make you grow so wise
Love can make you grow so wise
Love can make you grow so wise
Love's a dream and love's a lie
But love can make you grow so wise

Love can make you grow so wise
