Alicia Keys and John Mayer - Lesson Learned

He broke my heart
And now it's raining
Just to rub it in
I'm at your door
I feel so crazy 'bout it

You'll say I told you so
You saw it long ago
You knew he had to go
I finally came around
I'm back on solid ground
Can't let it get me down

Naw
(It's alright)
(It's alright)
(It's alright)
It's alright
(It's alright) yeah
(It's alright) yeah
(It's alright)

Yes, I was burned, but I called it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned, so I called it a lesson learned
My soul has returned, so I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned

Sometimes, some lies
Can take a minute to fully realize
His tears, your eyes
Thirty seconds to apologize

You give it one more chance
Just like the time before
But he already knows
You'd give a hundred more
Until that night in bed
You wake up in a sweat
You're racing to the door
Can't take it anymore

I was burned but I called it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned, so I called it a lesson learned
Whoa, my soul has returned, so I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned

Life perfect
Ain't perfect if you don't know what the struggle's for
Falling down ain't falling down
If you don't cry when you hit the floor
It's called the past 'cause I'm getting past
And I ain't nothing like I was before
You oughta see me now

Yes, I was burned but I called it a lesson learned
Mistake overturned, so I called it a lesson learned
Oh, my soul has returned, so I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned, whoa

Sayin' yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned (it's alright, it's alright)
Said mistake overturned so I call it a lesson learned (it's alright, it's a lesson learned)
My soul has returned so I call it lesson learned (it's alright, it's alright)
Oh, lesson learned

Oh (it's alright)
(It's a lesson learned) lesson learned
(It's alright)
(It's alright)
(It's alright)
(It's alright)
(It's a lesson learned)
(It's alright)
(It's alright)
(It's alright)
