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
