Lessons Songtext
von Dermot Kennedy

Hold on to love tightly, honey, it may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me, don′t you ever ask that
Hold on to love tightly, honey, it may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me, don't you ever ask that

Her heart was still bereft and all, sick and tired of steppin′ on
Shine, my darlin', never leave the light
I hate to see you sceptical, hugs that never helped at all
Things that I've accepted in this life

Loss was unacceptable, wish we could′ve kept it all
I′ve learned in love and death we don't decide
So sing until it fills the halls, sing until the curtain falls
Jealous of the ocean ′til those eyes

It's not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don′t want anybody else
I'd give anythin′ to see those eyes
I won't forget the lesson that I learned that night


It's not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don′t want anybody else
I′d give anythin' to see those eyes
I won′t forget the lesson that I learned that night

Hold on to love tightly, honey, it may never come back (ooh)
Baby, you were so right for me, don't you ever ask that (ooh)
Hold on to love tightly, honey, it may never come back (ooh)
Baby, you were so right for me, don′t you ever ask that

There was never gonna be a right time
So I should leave before I lose the sunlight
I cannot keep your spirit pinned down
If it was working, would've known it by now

But I hope your life is beautiful, a story like a musical
Standin′ ovation every night
Just never let them kill your soul, I'm never gonna let you fall
My promises get stronger overtime

It's not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don′t want anybody else
I′d give anythin' to see those eyes
I won′t forget the lesson that I learned that night


It's not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don′t want anybody else
I'd give anythin′ to see those eyes
I won't forget the lesson that I learned that night

Hold on to love tightly, honey, it may never come back (ooh)
Baby, you were so right for me, don't you ever ask that (ooh)
Hold on to love tightly, honey, it may never come back (ooh)
Baby, you were so right for me, don′t you ever ask that

Easy to forget how I loved you
Really don′t want anybody else
Easy to forget how I loved you
Really don't want anybody else
