Life is full of lessons.

I’ve learnt a lot from life
But will the info stick
I’ve heard from many people
At times I am quite thick

I’ve learnt a lot from life
And what about you
Are there many things
You would not again do

I’ve learnt a lot from life
Yes I’ve been burnt by love
But I’ll give it a go again
I might yet hold that dove

I’ve learnt a lot from life
Many adventures I have had
I’ve once been shot at
And I’m proud to be a dad

I’ve learnt a lot from life
Had my back to the wall
I’ve experienced nothingness
When will I see it all?

I’ve learnt a lot from life
I know how to give
I’ve learnt how to make money
Disappear like goin thru a sieve

I’ve learnt a lot from life
Like poetry and words
Not all people are good
Some can be absurd

I’ve learnt a lot from life
How to make a friend
I reckon I’ll be sad
When it comes to an end
