Ray LaMontagne " Lesson Learned "

I love this song but I couldn't find it in youtube, so here it is. Enjoy it!

Ray LaMontagne- Lessons Learned

Well the truth it fell so heavy
Like a hammer through the room
That I could choose another over her
You always said I was an actor, baby
Guess in truth you thought me just amateur

That you never saw the signs
That you never lost your grip
Oh, come on now
That's such a childish claim
Now I wear the brand of traitor
Don't it seem a bit absurd
When it's clear I was so obviously framed
When it's clear I was so obviously framed

Now you act so surprised
To hear what you already know
And all you really had to do was ask
I'd have told you straight away
All those lies were truth
And all that was false was fact

Now you hold me close and hard
But I was like a statue at most
Refusing to acknowledge you'd been hurt
Now you're clawing at my throat
And you're crying all is lost
But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt
But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt

Well the truth it fell so heavy
Like a hammer through the room
That I could choose another over her
You always said I was an actor, baby
Guess in truth you thought me just amateur

Was it you who told me once
Now looking back it seems surreal
That all our mistakes are merely grist for the mill
So why is it now after I had my fill
would you steal from me the sorrow that I've earned
Shall we call this a lesson learned?
Shall we call this a lesson learned?

He and Adele would make an amazing duet !!!

@cutecarcharodon Indeed! It is quite pitiful, actually, how someone will listen to singers talk about a party where they got pregnant, but wont listen to a man who lost his wife. Its changed every aspect of the "love" people rant about. Now the only "love" people feel is in their pants. Its upsetting. I'm glad there are people like us out there... We actually respect music and people instead of waking up in the morning and seeing p.diddy as your inspiration...

Nul n'est plus triste que la tristesse d'un Homme...

@jusifymysoul Every Ray Lamontagne song has oe of these comments posted. I really don't get it, they are from two completely opposing schools; one overblown and warbly and one straight from the heart and understated. I think it would be an awful idea

@bragonza Exactly! Music pulls our own emotions out and allows it to intertwine with every note and lyric said.. it's pretty magical stuff.

But your tears, they felt so hot upon my shirt...

[bragonza]

@CraterMuffin So well said..! I relate to music like this, and I wish more of us did..

@MegaMinimusic No, you're right. It's really moving. Haley's down, then Lucas has his heart attack and there's that really moving commentary, cos they just won the State Championship (or whatever it's called).
