Met a man at the station
  He stopped me from throwing myself on the tracks
  He said son, "It ain't always a woman
  that makes a man stab himself in the back"
  Your wounds will heal,You gotta give it time
  And all the hurt that you feel
  Is just like mine
    I've learned my lesson
  Been down that road before
  I've learned my lesson
  And the message is you'll never fly
  'Til you learn how to fall
    It seemed to me there was a ring of truth
  In what the old man said
  jump back take a look at your life
  You learn a lot about living when you're on the edge
  Your wounds will heal,you gotta give it time
  And though your troubles may be real
  it's just a state of mind
    I've learned my lesson
  Been down that road before
  I've learned my lesson
  And the message is you'll never fly
  'Til you learn how to fall
    Your wounds will heal,you gotta give it time
  And though your troubles may be real
  It's just a state of mind
    I've learned my lesson
  Been down that road before
  I've learned my lesson
  And the message is you'll never fly
  'Til you learn how to fall
  I've learned my lesson
  And the message is you'll never fly
  'Til you learn how to fall
  I've learned my lesson before
