Songtext von The Hardest Lessons

Well, I've always been a malcontent Never real good at takin’ compliments With one foot in my mouth, I apologize And I never forget my last drink Elevator goin' up but I was sinkin' From the 25th floor, all I wanted to do was fly Well, I’ve never been happier than walkin' away I'll get to where I'm goin' someday And if I don't, at least I'll keep you guessin' Yeah, I’ve never been better than bein’ alone Every mistake I make is my own 'Cause some people only learn the hardest lessons You know I got three boys and a minivan Some days I forget who I am And when I'm lost, I lead myself astray 25 years out on the road Lost a few good friends and some I didn't know And here I am, dancin' on their graves Well, think about, baby, what you really want Has it ever been good enough? And pardon me, all my indiscretions But when you add it all up now in the end I hope you'll take me back again ’Cause some people only learn the hardest lessons Well, think about, baby, what you really want Oh, is it good enough? And pardon me, all my indiscretions But when you add it all up now in the end I hope you'll take me back again 'Cause some people only learn the hardest lessons Yeah, some people only learn the hardest lessons
