Good Lesson

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Oh you were always stronger than I was

Oh you were always stronger than I was

Oh, Delilah

On a summer night, you came for me

My eyes were wide shut, opened my mind

Said you loved me

In the heat of it, I replied

Drunk lust is blind, love, can't choose your type

You were always stronger than I was

Oh, you were always stronger than I was

I got a good lesson in love

Taught through my bed

Like a wildfire

You showed me

A good lesson

Good, good lesson

Good lesson in love

In the morning

With a heavy head, an empty bed

Had a good time, you can't hold a good time

And you played me, like I was music made by your hands

Still ringing out and echoing around

You were always stronger than I was

Oh, you were always stronger than I was

I got a good lesson in love

Taught through my bed

Like a wildfire

You showed me

A good lesson

Good, good lesson

Good lesson in love

The weaker you made me, the stronger I felt

The higher you built me, the further I fell

The weaker you made me, the stronger I felt

The higher you built me, the further I fell

You were always stronger than I was

Oh you were always stronger than I was

I got a good lesson in love

I got a good lesson in love

From you, good lesson

Good, good lesson

Good lesson in love

I got a good lesson in love

Taught through my bed

Like a wildfire

You showed me

A good lesson

Good, good lesson

Good lesson in love

A good lesson

Good, good lesson

(You showed me)

A good lesson

Good, good lesson

(A good, good lesson)

A good lesson

Good, good lesson

(You showed me, you showed me)

(A good lesson in love)
