Dermot Kennedy - Lessons Lyrics


Hold on to love tightly, honey
It may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me
Don’t you ever ask that
Hold on to love tightly, honey
It may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me
Don’t you ever ask that

Her heart was still bereft and all
Sick and tired of stepping on
Shine, my darling, never leave the light
I hate to see you skeptical
Hugs that never helped at all
Things that I’ve accepted in this life
Loss was unacceptable
Wish we could have kept it all
I’ve learned in love and death we don’t decide
So sing until it fills the halls
Sing until the curtain falls
Jealous of the ocean till those eyes

It’s not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don’t want anybody else
I’d give anything to see those eyes
I won’t forget the lesson that I learned that night
It’s not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don’t want anybody else
I’d give anything to see those eyes
I won’t forget the lesson that I learned that night

Hold on to love tightly, honey
It may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me
Don’t you ever ask that
Hold on to love tightly, honey
It may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me
Don’t you ever ask that

There was never gonna be a right time
So I should leave before I lose the sunlight
I cannot keep your spirit pinned down
If it was working, would have known it by now
But I hope your life is beautiful
A story like a musical
Standing ovation every night
Just never let them kill your soul
I’m never gonna let you fall
My promises get stronger over time

It’s not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don’t want anybody else
I’d give anything to see those eyes
I won’t forget the lesson that I learned that night
It’s not easy to forget how I loved you
But I really don’t want anybody else
I’d give anything to see those eyes
I won’t forget the lesson that I learned that night

Hold on to love tightly, honey
It may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me
Don’t you ever ask that
Hold on to love tightly, honey
It may never come back
Baby, you were so right for me
Don’t you ever ask that
