Me... back when I thought I knew it all!!
You know... I have had this CD for a few years... and only now have I really heard this song! For whatever reason it really resonates with me right now. I think it's because when all is said and done... I take responsibility for where I am now in my life and ultimately who I am. Even though I would love to go back and change some things... all of my experiences have made me who I am... the test is to actually learn the lessons and be grateful that we are still here and alive and kicking!
There's some things that I regret,
Some words I wish had gone unsaid,
Some starts,that had some better endings.
Been some bad times I've been through,
Damage I cannot undo.
Some things, I wish I could do all all over again.
But it don't really matter, Life gets that much harder,
It makes you that much stronger.
Oh, some pages turned, Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes.
Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night.
Every change life has thrown me.
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,
I'm grateful, for every scar.
Some pages turned, some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.
There's mistakes that I have made,
Some chances I just threw away,
Some roads I never should've taken.
Been some signs I didn't see,
Hearts that I hurt needlessly,
Some wounds that I wish I could have one more chance to mend.
But it don't make no difference.
The past can't be rewritten.
You get the life you're given,
Oh, some pages turned, some bridges burned.
But there were, lessons learned
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes.
Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night.
Every change, life has thrown me.
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart.
I'm grateful, for every scar.
Some pages turned, Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.
And all the things that break you,
Are all the things that make you strong,
You can't change the past,
Cause it's gone, you just gotta move on.
Because it's all, Lessons learned.

Love the song. Never heard it before. It has great lyrics, too!
(And don't you know everything, now?)
Sigh... I sure love you! You're amazing and awesome and one of my regrets right now is not knowing you better than I do and spending more time together as kids. Gotta love blogging, though. It makes me feel more connected to my kinfolk :)
