Lot to Learn - Luke Christopher

These honky-tonks and bright lights used to thrill me I'd paint the town and stumble in at dawn But now there's no one listening for my footsteps And it's winding down to one more night alone I thought I had her wrapped around my finger I didn't think this bridge would ever burn I always thought she'd take me back But she taught me the cold hard fact When it comes to love, I've got a lot to learn It never crossed my mind that she might leave me She did her best to love me 'til the end If she were here, I know I'd treat her better But I won't ever get that chance again I thought I had her wrapped around my finger I didn't think this bridge would ever burn I always thought she'd take me back But she taught me the cold hard fact When it comes to love, I've got a lot to learn When it comes to love, I've got a lot to learn Oh, when it comes to love, I've got a lot to learn

Stepped off the plane down in Cabo Just meaning to stay for a week I got a funny sensation about this vacation The second the sand hit my feet Taxi driver took my two bags He saw me looking at my watch He said, "You won't need that here 'cause time disappears In paradise there ain't no clocks" You got a lot to learn about livin' It's a different world down here Our biggest problem's decidin' what fish we're fryin' Does it go with tequila or beer? He dropped me off at the hotel I took a U-turn into the bar I sat down on a stool out by the pool Next to a lady smoking a Cuban cigar I ordered a drink and took out my cell phone I tried to make a call to L.A. Dang thing wouldn't work, I started to curse Bartender said, "I bet it can wait" You got a lot to learn about livin' It's a different world down here Our biggest problem's decidin' what fish we're fryin' Does it go with tequila or beer? Ay, ay, ay, change is in the air Now, I ain't got a care Six months later I'm driving a taxi I got a Hawaiian shirt and a tan Pick up some guy in a Brooks Brothers tie I say, "It's time to loosen up man" You got a lot to learn about livin' It's a different world down here Our biggest problem's decidin' what fish we're fryin' Does it go with tequila or beer? There's a lot to learn about livin' It's a different life down here Our biggest problem's decidin' what fish we're fryin' Does it go with tequila or beer?

J'ai vendu ma misère pour une voix de soumission Au fond de moi la sentinelle pouvait briller sans exception Et les sourires étaient les mêmes A-t-on le cri du coeur, la vérité ou la raison Vous n'entendez donc que la bête et ses réponses à vos questions Est-ce que la fièvre est un délit d'opinion Est-ce que ma peine était un vote de sanction Et la sentinelle qui trouve réponse à mes questions Serait-ce la bête Serait-ce la bête Ou bien l'oppression Mon cri sert de silence aux fossoyeurs de compassion Aux mijaurées de la suffisance, aux incendiaires de l'unisson Quand un sourire décède d'avoir trop souri à l'opinion À cette soupape, cette sainte-atelle, j'aurais pu encore dire non Est-ce que la fièvre est un délit d'opinion Est-ce que ma peine était un vote de sanction Et la sentinelle qui trouve réponse à mes questions Serait-ce la bête Serait-ce la bête Ou bien l'oppression Ou bien l'oppression Ou bien l'oppression Ravale donc ta rengaine Ravale donc tes sanglots De l'amour ou de la haine Qui donc aura bon dos J'ai eu ce cri de guerre pas en faux-frére mais en sans-nom Je donne ma main à l'enfer, sous vos crachats, ma rédition Est-ce que la fièvre est un délit d'opinion Est-ce que ma peine était un vote de sanction Et la sentinelle qui trouve réponse à mes questions Serait-ce la bête Serait-ce la bête Ou bien l'oppression
