Lesson Learned in Seconds
[Verse 1: Donovan Melero]
I would say if I hadn’t looked
I’d be resting meters beneath us
I would say if I hadn’t turned
Then the phone call would have been much worse
[Pre-Chorus: Donovan Melero]
A little voice on my shoulder at the light
Shouted "Brace yourself", I didn’t question it
And when the glass formed a body silhouette
I released myself, I don't question it
What is your last thought?
[Chorus 1: Donovan Melero]
I’m flashing back to every phone call
Wish that I had answered
I'm flashing back to every talk I didn’t have
If this disturbance doesn’t take me away
Then I will treasure every random moment I get with you
[Verse 2: Donovan Melero]
I would pray every other night
To go backwards, I'd go backwards
And I would scream how I’m lost
I didn’t understand, and it took a broken window to think
What are my last thoughts
[Chorus 1: Donovan Melero]
I’m flashing back to every phone call
Wish that I had answered
I'm flashing back to every talk I didn’t have
If this disturbance doesn’t take me away
Then I will treasure every random moment I get with you
[Post-Chorus: Donovan Melero]
I pray to go back when I am lost
I didn’t always understand ’til my head hit the window
Changing the way I now think
[Chorus 2: Donovan Melero]
I feel remorse for every phone call
Wish that I had answered
I'm flashing back to every talk I should have had
If this disturbance doesn’t take me to them
Then I will savor every random moment we get
Yeah
[Bridge: Donovan Melero]
So many ways to spend the time allotted
So many ways to love the ones who care
I needed this to value time, I hadn’t before
I let it go to waste the farther I went north
I let it incubate by going back and forth
Don't let it dissipate, don’t let it
[Outro: Donovan Melero]
