I thought that we were set for life,
  Will 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 have 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 an advice,
  But now your gone,
  And I can recognize,
  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 realize that being wise so wise,
  Doesn't always mean to criticise,
  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,
  To give an advice,
  But now your gone,
  And I can recognize,
  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,
    Words of wisdom,
  Everyone offers me,
  Words of wisdom,
  Now I can see,
  That it's easy on the outside,
  To give an advice,
  But now your gone,
  And I can recognize,
  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.
