History has a habit of repeating itself

I knew the score the moment the game started,

I saw the end before the journey began.
If only you could see the things I see,
If only you knew the things I know.
A blink of an eye and the deed is done,
Neither words nor tears can right that wrong.
Love is not what you think it is,
A costly lesson for you it has been.
You should have looked before you leapt,
You should have thought twice before you made your move.
Experience and Wisdom are the tools you will need,
To built that dream in which you seek.
The most important thing to note,
The most crucial lesson of them all.
Things are never what they seem,
Like a mirage always mistaken for a stream.
I am sorry for your loss I really am,
But I am sure you've heard of the words that follow,
What you reap is what you sow,
What goes around too comes back round.
Perhaps you knew what I had known
Perhaps you did see what I had seen
I think you knew you had it coming,
I think you too knew the ending.
This was definitely no happily ever after,
But a Lesson in Love it was to be.
