Life lessons - Richard Strauss
Lyrics by：Richard Strauss
Composed by：Richard Strauss
Produced by：Richard Strauss
Started out small in a two-room place
Barefoot truth and a blue jean phase
Mama said boy don't rush that road
Every scar's got a story told
I burned through spring I chased that flame
Learned some lessons with my name
I know what stays what goes
Life don't cut straight lines it rolls
Through the dust and the rain
I keep changing I keep sane
New skin same heart same song
I've been growing all along
Through the hurt and the gold
I keep moving I get bold
One stage ends one door swings
I'm still learning all these things
First love hit like a County fair
Fell too fast I went all in there
Lost a little won a little too
Found my feet in an old back pew
And I wrote those long hard years
Paid in sweat and a few small tears
Now I smile at the broken road
Every bend helped me know
Through the dust and the rain
I keep changing I keep sane
New skin same heart same song
I've been growing all along
Through the hurt and the gold
I keep moving I get bold
One stage ends one door swings
I'm still learning all these things
Now I've got gray in my beard
And a little less need for fear
If tomorrow pulls me out
I'll still sing what I'm about
Through the dust and the rain
I keep changing I keep sane
New skin same heart same song
I've been growing all along
Through the hurt and the gold
I keep moving I get bold
One stage ends one door swings
I'm still learning all these things
