Lesson Learned

Song byAlicia Keys

in AlbumAs I Am

He broke a heart

And now it's raining

Just to rub it in

I'm at your door

I feel so crazy about it

You'll say I told you so

You saw it long ago

You knew he had to go

I finally came 'round

I'm back on solid ground

Can't let it get me down

It's alright

Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned

Mistake overturned

So I call it a lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned

Sometimes

Some lies

Can take a minute

To fully realize

His tears

Your eyes

Thirty seconds to apologize

You give it one more chance

Just like the time before

But he already know you'd give a hundred more

Until that night in bed

You wake up in a sweat

You're racing to the door

Can't take it anymore

I was burned but I called it a lesson learned

Mistake overturned

So I call it a lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned

Life perfect

Ain't perfect

If you don't know what the struggle's for

Falling down ain't falling down

If you don't cry when you hit the floor

It's called the past cause I'm getting past

And I ain't nothing like I was before

You ought to see me now

Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned

Mistake overturned

So I call it a lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned

Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned

Mistake overturned

So I call it a lesson learned

My soul has returned

So I call it a lesson learned

Another lesson learned
