You taught me how to laugh, you taught me how to cry
I learned the game you play with all your alibis
You're just toyin' with my heart, just tryin' to play it cool
When I learned how to love, I learned how to lose
I learned my lesson oh so well, I've really got the blues
When I learned how to love, you taught me how to lose
I wear a crown of thorns all around my broken heart
I'm beggin' on my knees, you're tearin' me apart
Yes I'm the king of clowns, yes I'm the prince of fools
When I learned how to love, I learned how to lose
I learned my lesson oh so well, I've really got the blues
When I learned how to love, I learned how to lose
When I learned how to love, you taught me how to lose
