Met a man at the station

He stopped me from throwing myself on the tracks

He said son, "It ain't always a woman

that makes a man stab himself in the back"

Your wounds will heal,You gotta give it time

And all the hurt that you feel

Is just like mine



I've learned my lesson

Been down that road before

I've learned my lesson

And the message is you'll never fly

'Til you learn how to fall



It seemed to me there was a ring of truth

In what the old man said

jump back take a look at your life

You learn a lot about living when you're on the edge

Your wounds will heal,you gotta give it time

And though your troubles may be real

it's just a state of mind



I've learned my lesson

Been down that road before

I've learned my lesson

And the message is you'll never fly

'Til you learn how to fall



Your wounds will heal,you gotta give it time

And though your troubles may be real

It's just a state of mind



I've learned my lesson

Been down that road before

I've learned my lesson

And the message is you'll never fly

'Til you learn how to fall

I've learned my lesson

And the message is you'll never fly

'Til you learn how to fall

I've learned my lesson before
