I never practiced piano when I was a boy
And I still ain't working to perfect guitar
I never read my lesson books like others did
The way they looked in study halls while I mapped out the stars
Sometimes I forget to do the things that others do
Take it as it's handed like a hopeful kid in June
So sometimes I retracted to the howling wind and moon
But I learned out there, I learned a thing or two
I only know the bills I owe when overdue
And I swear the lost and found has my estate
When uncle Sam asked "Where's my plate?"
I said "Come in", he said "I'll wait"
I ran away, I always run away
Sometimes I forget to do the things that others do
Take it as it's handed like some bourbon on the room
Sometimes I'll be up and drunk my problems on a few
But I'll learn out there, I'll learn a thing or two
I knew when you were comin', oh, I learned your name
And I tried to make it all seem by mistake
I didn't know the lengths I'd go what I'd devote in every note
I found a hill and built a cityscape
So while sometimes I forget to do the things that lovers do
Take it all for granted like a night I'm sleeping through
So sometimes I'll awaken from a dream cold and confused
But I'll learn again to fall in love with you
Sometimes I forget to do the things that lovers do
I'll learn again to fall in love with you
'Cause I learned, I did, I learned a thing or two
