Marty West Poet Lyric

Lesson Learned

LESSON LEARNED
Parking by the lake on a hot summers night
Hoping this time you wouldn’t put up a fight
You swore you would never leave me alone
That night you gave your all to me
Said this is the way it’s suppose to be
But you left me standing on my own
(CHORUS)
Lesson learned about this thing called love
Lesson learned they say it comes in on the wings of a dove
Lesson learned about this thing called romance
Lesson learned I guess we had our last dance
High school dance and you were looking so hot
Decided that I would give it one more shot
But you just smiled as you turned and walked away
You treated me so unkind
I decided to drink you off my mind
I never want to remember that day
(CHORUS)
Lesson learned about this thing called love
Lesson learned they say it comes in on the wings of a dove
Lesson learned about this thing called romance
Lesson learned I guess we had our last dance


Years have gone by and you are in my past
Even though you said our love would always last
But we were young and didn’t think it through 
Still think about you ever once in a while
Somehow I can still manage a smile
I guess I will always remember you
(CHORUS)
Marty West
