Lessons Learned by Carrie Underwood

And 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 could not undo
Some things I wish I could do all all over again

But it don't really matter
When life gets that much harder
It makes you that much stronger

Some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were lessons learned

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes
With every day 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 star

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 have 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
But you get the life you're given

Some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were lessons learned

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes
And every day I wondered how I'd get through the night
From every change life has thrown me
I'm thankful for every break in my heart
I'm grateful for every star

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
And you just gotta move on
Because it's all lessons learned

From every tear that had to fall from my eyes
From every day I wondered how I'd get through the night
From every change life has thrown me
I'm thankful for every break in my heart
I'm grateful for every start

Some pages turned
Some bridges burned
But there were lessons learned




I have had this song in my head for the past two days...The words to this song say so much more than I ever could....Life is funny and so many times things happen that leave you wondering why or wishing for a different outcome. You just have to take them as lessons learned and move on. No matter how hard you try and hold on to the past, the fact is it's gone!
