Lesson Learnt

You would have thought

That I’d have learnt

This all by now

It seems that I

Am here again

Someway somehow

Every time

The same old thing

Comes back around

If you don’t learn to swim

Then you’ll sink

And then you’ll drown

I guess it’s a lesson learnt

If you play with fire then baby you will burn

I guess it’s a lesson learnt

If you play with fire then you’ll probably burn

Is it my fault

If I choose to ignore

The things that you’ve

Told me once

Or twice before

Maybe I’d rather not

Understand

The things that I don’t want

As a man

I guess it’s a lesson learnt

If you play with fire then baby you will burn

I guess it’s a lesson learnt

If you play with fire then you’ll probably burn
