Lyrics When Will I Ever Learn - Don Williams

When Will I Ever Learn

You call me at five to five
And you ask me if I’ll drop by
That you need me
Tonight you’re all alone
Like the fool I am and the fool I’ll be
I drove there anxiously
But when I got there
You were not alone
When will I ever learn
That you’ll never care about me
You only build me up
To bring me down again
When will I ever learn
That you’ll use me and abuse me
Oh, tell me, when will I ever learn
When will I learn, when will I get wise
You never, apologise
I swear that this time I’m through with you
But like the fool I am and the fool I’ll be
The next time you need me
Once again I’ll give in to you
When will I ever learn
That you’ll never care about me
You only build me up
To bring me down again
When will I ever learn
That you’ll use me and abuse me
Oh tell me, when will I ever learn…
