Learned My Lesson

[Verse 1]
Mamma didn’t raise no liar
I’ve walked through too many fires
I’ve had to learn to keep my mouth shut
I’m losing every man I needed
I’ll drown if I sink any deeper
I’m too scared of wanting to trust

[Chorus]
You keep, you keep on saying
Love don’t, love don’t cost nothing
Oh I can’t help but wonder
Why I paid so much
I’ll never say “l can’t survive that”
Not again
I think I learned my lesson
I’ll never say “you’re everything I have”
Not again
I think I learned my lesson

[Verse 2]
I never saw a love look easy
I’m holding on and barely breathing
Scared that you’ll be careless with my heart
You can try to show me different
Show me something worth the risking
Why should I let my guard down

[Chorus]
You keep, you keep on saying
Love don’t, love don’t cost nothing
Oh I can’t help but wonder
Why I paid so much
I’ll never say “l can’t survive that”
Not again
I think I learned my lesson
I’ll never say “you’re everything I have”
Not again
I think I learned my lesson
I think I learned my lesson

[Bridge]
I learned time don’t heal all wounds
And maybe I should get so close to you
Time’s been a hard, hard teacher
I try and try and try and end up bent

[Chorus]
I’ll never say “l can’t survive that”
Not again
I think I learned my lesson
I’ll never say “you’re everything I have”
Not again
I think I learned my lesson
I think I learned my lesson
