Lesson Learned In Time

Sorry's just a word
Till you put in the feeling.
Without the emotion,
I don't even hear it.
That's why it's so rare
That you are forgiven.
It's a lesson learned in time.

After all that you've said,
That you've hated, you've loved,
Goodbye will fix it
Till we're gone for miles.
Don't bother looking over your shoulder;
I'll be gone too far away.
It's a lesson learned in time.

So after the events
Of these past twelve months,
You think you can come back
Right into my arms.
Well guess what, you thought wrong.
I know that's a first.
It's a lesson learned in time.

You hurt me,
You broke me,
You ripped up my heart.
You threw me around
And left all these scars.
But I'm finally over it all.
It's a lesson learned in time.

Don't try to convince me
To take you back home.
It's not gonna happen.
So go on with the show.
No longer do I pity you,
Forget missing you.
It's a lesson learned in time.
