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 cause i learned i did i learned a thing or two
