Yes I Was Burned But I Call It A Lesson Learned

Lesson Learned

By: Alicia Keys featuring John Mayer

He broke
My heart
And now it’s raining
Just don’t rub it in
I’m at
Your door
I feel so crazy bout it
You’ll say I told you so
You saw it long ago
You knew he had to go
I finally came around
I’m back on solid ground
Can’t let it get me down

It’s Alright
It’s Alright
It’s Alright

Yes, I was burned but I call it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned but I call it a lesson learned
My soul has returned so I call it 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 him one more chance
Just like the time before
But he already knows
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 call it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned so I call it a lesson learned
My soul has returned so I call it lesson learned
Another lesson learned

A 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 oughta see me now
