The Lesson

Say there was a lesson on how to live

Then love would be the lesson

Say there was a lesson on how to love

Then life would be the lesson

We're longing for looks and touch and words and feeling

We're walking on on roads of dirt and sand

We have to crawl and listen

Say there was a lesson on how to live

Then love would be the lesson

Say there was a lesson on how to love

Then life would be the lesson

We're carrying over the sky our sweat and breathing

Still we're living on, we strive and win and lose

Appealing for a meaning

Take a deeper dive in the dark and feel

The pain and the rage and steal

Robbing along the way

Still you rise, still you kneel

In the eyes of those you touch

The words you mean to say

Learn to give, forgive

Through love depend with all that's living

Dare now, live now, dance all night

Choosing, standing, risking with my soul

Remember

Throwing all my skin to leave the maze

Some say there's no dawn

I dream even more

Lose or win or, weep or shout, we cry

Choosing, standing, risking with my soul

Surrender

Throwing all my skin to leave the maze

Some say there's no dawn

I dream even more

Lose or win or, never stop to try

Love on

Say there was a lesson on how to live

Then love would be the lesson

Say there was a lesson on how to love

Then life would be the lesson

Keep walking on

Say there was a lesson

Say there was a lesson on how to live

Then love would be the lesson

Say there was a lesson
