The Byrds - Everybody's Been Burned lyrics

Everybody has been burned before

Everybody knows the pain

Anyone in this place can tell you to your face

Why you shouldn't try to love someone

Everybody knows it never works

Everybody knows and me

I know that door that shuts just before

You get to the dream you see...

I know it all too well how to turn, how to run

how to hide behind a bitter wall of blue

But you die inside if you chose to hide

So I guess instead I'll love you...
