I had to learn how to cry out in distress
And you had to learn only how to love me less
And we learned well
How to make a farewell

I had to learn to accept the tears that fell
And you had to learn how to break loves magic spell
And we learned well
How to make a farewell

It was oh such a blow to discover
That our love was falling apart
It was just too late to recover
And I had to learn to live with a broken heart

You had to learn to ignore me when we meet
And I had to learn how to smile and not to weep
And we learned well
How to make a farewell

Oh oh we learned well
How to make a farewell

Ah huh we learned well
How to make a farewell

Oh oh we learned well
How to make a farewell
