Lyrics:

I thought that we were set for life
We’d be together man and wife
But all the plans I made for us have changed
I thought I could decide for you
Everything that we would do
I wish I could've bit my tongue
But I kept going on and on

Words of wisdom
Everyone offers me
Words of wisdom
Now I can see that it’s easy on the outside to give out advice
And now you’re gone I can recognise
What I put you through
With those words of wisdom
I gave to you

Everybody’s telling me (Everybody's telling me)
It clearly wasn’t meant to be
But they don’t know how much I hurt you
I was wrong
Now I realise I’m being wise (So wise)
Doesn't always mean to critisice
And by driving your love away
I know now what not to say

Words of wisdom
Everyone offers me
Words of wisdom
Now I can see that it’s easy on the outside
Then to give out advise
And now you’re gone I can recognise
What I put you through
With those words of wisdom
I gave to you

They tell me how life goes on
And I gotta be strong
But I don’t wanna be looked upon
As someone who really needs...

Words of wisdom
Everyone offers me
Words of wisdom
Now I can see that it’s easy on the outside
Then to give out advise
And now you’re gone I can recognise
What I put you through
With those words of wisdom
I gave to you

I gave to you
(Words of wisdom)
I gave to you
(Words of wisdom)
I gave to you
(Words of wisdom
