Why Did Nobody Tell Me ?

why did nobody tell me love is not sugar and spice
why did nobody warn me love can hurt you, disconcert you
why did nobody tell me love can cut just like a knife
and why did no-one forewarn me about life
oh now why did nobody issue an alarm or an alert
why did nobody tell me that love can hurt ?

fat and thin people
brown and pink people
young and old people love

rich and poor people
tall and short people
straight and gay people love

but why does fickle-minded love result in so much pain ?

oh
why did no-one advise me about the pain I could avert
why did nobody tell me that love can hurt ?
