Met a man at the station He stopped me from throwing myself on the tracks He said son, "It ain't always a woman that makes a man stab himself in the back" Your wounds will heal,You gotta give it time And all the hurt that you feel Is just like mine I've learned my lesson Been down that road before I've learned my lesson And the message is you'll never fly 'Til you learn how to fall It seemed to me there was a ring of truth In what the old man said jump back take a look at your life You learn a lot about living when you're on the edge Your wounds will heal,you gotta give it time
And though your troubles may be real it's just a state of mind I've learned my lesson Been down that road before I've learned my lesson And the message is you'll never fly 'Til you learn how to fall Your wounds will heal,you gotta give it time And though your troubles may be real It's just a state of mind I've learned my lesson Been down that road before I've learned my lesson And the message is you'll never fly 'Til you learn how to fall I've learned my lesson And the message is you'll never fly 'Til you learn how to fall I've learned my lesson before
