Learn Again

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
