Michael Franks - The Art Of Love Lyrics

He had strong defenses built,
His heart to surround.
Not for long, when she appeared
All the walls tumbled down.
She had scars reminding her
She was easily deceived.
Only tears convinced her
Once again to believe.

His ego would bend
Learning the art of love.
Her heart soon would mend
Learning the art of love.

They were two hearts tuned together
And beating as one.
Ever new, each kiss was like
The very first one.
They explored each landscape
Of their sweet intimacy.
Never bored, love's horizon reached out
Infinitely.

Both lovers and friends
Learning the art of love.
Homework never ends
Learning the art of love.

Learning the art of love
Requires some determination.
You search for the heart of love
In every different situation.
You apply the art of love
