Nikka Costa – The Rules Of The Road lyrics
So these are the ropes, the tricks of the trade
Rules of the road
You're one of the dopes for whom they were made
The rules of the road

Follow that kiss
And recklessly miss a bend in the road
Then suddenly this, the end of the road

So love is a hoax
A glittering string of little white lies
These are the jokes
And what if they bring tears to your eyes

Love often shows a funny return
The brighter it glows, the longer you burn
Lord only knows love has little concern
For the fools of the road

But that's how it goes
You live and you learn the rules of the road
Yeah, that's how it goes
You live and you learn the rules of the road
Hey, yeah

So love is a hoax
A glittering string of little white lies
But these are the jokes
And what if they bring tears to your eyes

Love often shows a funny return
The brighter it glows, the longer you burn
And Lord only knows love has little concern
Lord only knows love has little concern
For the fools of the road

That's how it goes
You live and you learn the rules of the road
Oh, that's how it goes
You live and you learn rules of the road
Ooh yeah, hey
