Songtext zu 'Learn From This' von Lyfe Jennings

She been gone, almost two weeks now
Tired as hell, but I can't sleep now
I miss my kids, and though I see them everyday it ain't the same
This big house is full of echos
I'm thinkin now maybe I should just let it go
Cause it's too big for just me
Too many memories

[Chorus:]
So I pay my child support like the judge tells me to
And I'll stay out all night drinkin' while I'm getting over you
It's sad but it's true
Don't know what else I can do
Guess I'll pull my fuckin' heart out on this CD like a fool
Yall better learn from this... [4x]
Mmm

I day-dream of how we used to be
And eat ice cream until the box is clean
I miss my kids and even though they live right up the street
It's killing me
My phone rings for what seems like hours
And when they ask for you, I say you're in the shower [laughs]
It's my way of calming down
It's either that or burn this fuckin' house to the ground

[Chorus:]
So I pay my child support like the judge tells me to
And I'll stay out all night drinkin' while I'm getting over you
It's sad but it's true
But I'm gonna do the best I can
And if by chance I don't make it, the kids tuition is in my timberlands
Y'all better learn from this... [4x]
Mmm

So I guess I'll take it to the bridge (to the bridge)
Cause there's just too many and this is what it is
It's about a man who lost his woman and his kids (and his kids)
And it goes a little something like this (goes a little something like this)
Little miss muffet sat on her tuffet, eating her pourage away
Then along came a liar
Sat down beside her and frightened miss muffet away
Again now she's gone
She ain't never come home at all
Ooh now she's gone (learn from this)
If I could take it back
Oooo I would take it, ooo I would take it (learn from this)
Oooooooooooooo
Learn from this... [till fade out]
