Some Lessons Lyrics
Well, I'm buckled up inside
Miracle that I'm alive
Do not think I can survive
On bread and wine aloneTo think that I could have fallen
A centimeter to the left
Would not be here to see the sunset
Or have myself a timeWell, why do the hands of time
So easily unwind?Some lessons we learn the hard way
Some lessons don't come easy
And that's the price we have to payWell, some lessons we learn the hard way
They don't come right off and right easy
And that's why they say some lessons learned
We learn the hard wayRemember the sound of the pavement
World turned upside down
City streets unlined and empty
Not a soul aroundLife goes away in a flash
Right before your eyes
If I think real hard, well, I reckon
I had some real good timesWhy do the hands of time
So easily unwind?Some lessons we learn the hard way
Some lessons don't come easy
And that's the price we have to payWell, some lessons we learn the hard way
They don't come right off and right easy
And that's why they say some lessons learned
We learn the hard way
