Melody Gardot - Some Lessons |
|
|
|
Well I'm buckled up inside |
|
It's a miracle that I'm alive |
|
I do not think I can survive |
|
On bread and wine alone |
|
To think that I could have fallen |
|
A centimeter to the left |
|
Would not be here to see the sunset |
|
Or have myself a time |
|
|
|
Well why do the hands of time |
|
So easily unwind |
|
|
|
Some lessons we learn the hard way |
|
Some lessons don't come easy |
|
That's the price we have to pay |
|
Some lessons we learn the hard way |
|
They don't come right off and right easy |
|
That's why they say some lessons learned we learn the hard way |
|
|
|
Remember the sound of the pavement |
|
World turned upside down |
|
City streets unlined and empty |
|
Not a soul around |
|
Life goes away in a flash |
|
Right before your eyes |
|
If I think real hard well I reckon I've had some real good times |
|
|
|
Well why do the hands of time |
|
So easily unwind |
|
|
|
Some lessons we learn the hard way |
|
Some lessons don't come easy |
|
That's the price we have to pay |
|
Some lessons we learn the hard way |
|
They don't come right off and right easy |
|
That's why they say some lessons learned we learn the hard way |
