Lyrics

lessons (boyinblue remix)

[Intro]

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 1]

Do words lose weight if said too often?

If not said enough, are they forgotten?

Do I bite my tongue out of over-caution now?

Thought I had it all just figured out

But I'm slowing down with questions now

It's okay to step back and look around

[Pre-Chorus]

It'll just take time

Be patient with yourself

There's more room to grow

If you leave your worries on the shelf

[Chorus]

Don't look back

Just go forward like you mean it

Say it if you feel it

Life goes so fast

So, go live with good intentions

Today's another lesson

[Post-Chorus]

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 2]

Lost so much from overthinking

My head gets stuck, my feet lose feeling

But the fear's not enough to stop us dreaming now

It ain't easier being first to know

There's no need to be so precious

You can let it go

[Chorus]

Don't look back

Just go forward like you mean it

Say it if you feel it

Life goes so fast

So, go live with good intentions

Today's another lesson

[Post-Chorus]

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

[Chorus]

Don't look back

Just go forward like you mean it

Say it if you feel it

Life goes so fast

So, go live with good intentions

Today's another lesson

[Outro]

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
