Lyrics

Thank you that you couldn't see the many things I had to offer
Thank you that you painted me in black and white devoid of colour
I thank you for choosing to be teacher in this time of learning
I have only realised the value of my deepest yearning
I learnt my lesson well
Thank you for the superficial masquerade that you delivered
Thank you for the coldness of your lies you know I ached and shivered
Thank you for consistently pursuing me into awareness
I only have gratitude for life is full of love and fairness
I learnt my lesson well, I learnt my lesson well
Thank you for the criticism levelled at my innocence
Thank you for the overwhelming push that knocked me off the fence
And thank you for the demonstration of betrayal and undermining
Thank you that my head's held high and for the peace my heart is pining for
I learnt my lesson well...
I have learnt from my discretion, I will make my big confession
Finding peace is my obsession, I have learnt my lesson
Thank you that you couldn't see the many things I had to offer
Thank you that you painted me in black and white devoid of colour
Thank you that your ignorance has lead me to this understanding
Thank you for the perfect timing, perfect fall and perfect timing
I learnt my lesson well I learnt my lesson well
I learnt my lesson well.
