[Verse 1]
As we've turned these empty pages
I have seen the sweat and pain
Do we have to waste these ages
Goin' through it all again?
Let's forget all the dreams we had
They were dreams of yesterday

[Chorus]
When will we ever learn?
When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

[Verse 2]
All that's left now is to keep on hopin'
We can change the die that's cast
I remember how they laughed then
But I knew it wouldn't last
I've tried so hard to close my eyes
But I just can't close my mind

[Chorus]
When will we ever learn?
When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?
[Bridge]
One thing's for certain while we're here
Nothing's for sure, only the fear

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]
I've tried so hard to close my eyes
But I just can't close my mind

[Chorus]
When will we ever learn?
When will we turn around?
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

[Outro]
Hey, yea
