Tall Heights Learn Again song lyrics

I never practiced piano when I was a boy

and I still ain't working to perfect guitar.

I never read my lesson books

like others did,

the way they looked in study halls

while I mapped out the stars.

Sometimes I forget to do

the things that others do,

take it as it's handed

like a hopeful kid in June.

So, sometimes I retracted to

the howling wind and moon,

but I learned out there,

I learned a thing or two.

I only know the bills I owe when overdue,

and I swear the lost and found has my estate.

When Uncle Sam asked "where's my plate?"

I said "come in," he said "I'll wait,"

I ran away, I always run away.

Sometimes I forget to do

the things that others do,

take it as it's handed

like some bourbon on the room.

Sometimes I'll be up, and drunk,

my problems on a few,

but I'll learn out there,

I'll learn a thing or two.

I knew when you were comin', oh,

I learned your name

and I tried to make it all seem by mistake.

I didn't know the lengths I'd go,

what I'd devote in every note,

I found a hill and built a cityscape.

So while sometimes I forget to do

the things that lovers do,

take it all for granted

like a night I'm sleeping through...

So, sometimes I'll awaken from a dream cold and confused,

but I'll learn again to fall in love with you.

Sometimes I forget to do the things that lovers do

I'll learn again to fall in love with you.

Cuz I learned, I did, I learned a thing or two.
