Alicia Keys: 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
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, 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
30 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
My soul has returned so I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned
A 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
My soul has returned so I call it a lesson learned
Another lesson learned
Whoa, said yes, I was burned but I called it a lesson learned
(It's alright, it's alright)
Said mistake overturned so I called it a lesson learned
(It's alright, it's alright)
My soul has returned so I call it a lesson learned, oh lesson learned
(It's alright, it's alright)
Oh, lesson learned
(It's alright, it's alright)
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
