It was the right Hollywood night to fall in love
Easy in just the light from the boulevard of dreams
We threw caution to the winds, we were giving in
Trying to trust our hearts in a world of fantasy
But love just don't come like that, each time you call it
And dreams don't come true like that, every time you dream
We were just caught up in the trance
It was called romance, it was one of life's lessons
We were just howling at the moon
It would be over soon, it was one of life's lessons
We made all the right moves, acting out all of the right taboos
We turned the fire on
And in a 100 Hollywood days we couldn't make it play
We had to look inside, and find the thrill had gone
But love just don't come like that, each time you call it
And dreams don't come true like that, every time you dream
We were just caught up in the trance
It was called romance, it was one of life's lessons
We were just howling at the moon
It would be over soon, it was one of life's lessons
You got under my skin
In a warm, southwestern wind
I'd probably do it all again
Don't you live and learn, don't you live and learn
But love just don't come like that, each time you call it
And dreams don't come true like that, every time you dream
We were just caught up in the trance
It was called romance, it was one of life's lessons
We were just howling at the moon
It would be over soon, it was one of life's lessons
Oh, don't you live and learn all about love
(One of life's) one of life's (one of life's lessons) lessons
Don't you live and learn, don't you live and learn
(One of life's lessons) one of life's lessons
Tell me why dreams always don't come true...
(One of life's lessons)
Teach me, oh yeah, oh yeah...
(One of life's lessons) one of life's...
