Sangtekst: Hawksley Workman. Devastating.

I thought of settling down
I thought of leaving it all behind for you
Ooh-ooh
Sometimes things gotta change
Sometimes things will burn out before they're due
Oooh ooh

I guess this is what I'm supposed to learn
I guess this is what I'm supposed to learn
But learning is so devastating
Devastating ooh oooh oooh

Devastating, devastating, oooh

I thought of taking it back
But words have a life of their own
Once they're said they're gone oh

We cried till we were dried out
We tried till we were tried out
And that was all we had

I guess this is what we're supposed to learn
I guess this is what we're supposed to learn
But learning is so devastating
Devastating ooh oooh oooh

Devastating, devastating, oooh

I hope you know that I care
I hope you know that I love you till the end

At night I wish you were there
Sleeping peacefully lying in our bed

I guess this is what I'm supposed

Loving you was so devastating
Devastating oh oh oh

Devastating... devastating...

Loving you was so devastating
Devastating oh oh oh

Devastating... devastating...
