## **Lyrics**

**Intro**

Open up your heart to the ceiling

Don't you know it hurts for a reason

Time will take you back to believing

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

**Verse 1**

Stars, won't you shine on me

Won't you dance with me

Me and my baby

Life, it's enough to cry

It's a lot to give and it's driving me crazy

**Pre-Chorus**

I never meant to fight with you

I wanted us to stay together

And even though my love is true

I know that we can't be together

**Chorus**

Open up your heart to the ceiling

Don't you know it hurts for a reason?

Time will take you back to believing

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

Somewhere out there someone is breathing

Just for you their heart keeps on beating

Time will take you back to believing

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

**Verse 2**

Moon, where's the man in you

Show the way to us

The sky is turning black now

Moon, what you trying to do

It's too late for us and there's no turning back now

**Pre-Chorus**

I never meant to fight with you

I wanted us to stay together

And even though my love is true

I know that we can't be together

**Chorus**

Open up your heart to the ceiling

Don't you know it hurts for a reason?

Time will take you back to believing

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

Somewhere out there someone is breathing

Just for you their heart keeps on beating

Time will take you back to believing

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

♪

**Partial Chorus**

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

**Bridge**

Open up your heart to the ceiling

Don't you know it hurts for a reason?

Time will take you back to believing

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

**Chorus**

Somewhere out there someone is breathing

Just for you their heart keeps on beating

Time will take you back to believing

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again

♪

**Outro**

You'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again
