Indigo Girls Learned It On Me song lyrics

there comes a time eventually

when the cold black water goes under the bridge

so I say yes we can meet up

it's been too long and life goes on and I can do this

you wanna thank me for everything you've learned

for what went wrong and how I've paved the path

for the corner than you turned

and this is what you've learned

what you you lack from love is not a lack in someone else

and everyone has baggage to be carried

you learn that one plus one is one plus one is never more or less

and once you finally got it you got married

I guess I should be happy I'm the course that set you free

I just wish you hadn't learned it on me

I'm better now though you almost broke me

and at the time I couldn't see past my confusion

when I believed that love was real and not a bag of tricks

and you were always just more gifted at illusion (you wanna thank me for everything you've learned)

and you wanna thank me for everything I've learned

from the hard-knocks and the troubles

and the point of no return

all the bridges that you burn

what you you lack in love is not a lack in someone else

and everyone has baggage to be carried

you learn that one plus one is one plus one is never more or less

and once you finally got it you got married

I'm glad your education made you happy by degree

i just wish you hadn't learned it on me

i guess I'm glad that I've seen you face to face

It's just slightly more cathartic than a letter

but the line is pretty fine in fact it's pretty much erased

between humility and making you feel better

And some is false and some is true and now I know

it's just me and it's just you

and it's just the way it goes

and now that book is closed

what you you lack in love is not a lack in someone else (what you lack in love)

and everyone has baggage to be carried

you learn that one plus one is one plus one is never more or less (one plus one is one plus one)

best of luck to that girl you married

smiling on her little learning tree

i wish you hadn't learned it on me
