Lesson Learned ft. Alex Mahoney & Tom LaRocca Lyrics

Gather around people, I got something to say

Hey you over there, come around my way

Been living a while now, many pages turned

Listen very closely to a lesson I've learned

It ain't about money, it ain't about things

It ain't about a big house, no diamond rings

If it's you I'm describing, then I'm sorry to say

If it's happiness you're seeking, you won't find it that way

You're working ten, twelve hours every day of your life

You come home too tired to even kiss your wife

Your children ask to play with you, you read the paper instead

You watch the ten o'clock news, then you go to bed

You're so caught up in the Rat Race game

Your bank account is fulfilled, but can you say the same

You're working ten, twelve hours every day of your life

You come home too tired to even kiss your wife

Your children ask to play with you, you read the paper instead

You watch the ten o'clock news, then you go to bed

You're so caught up in the Rat Race game

Your bank account is fulfilled, but can you say the same

So tell me, are you happy? Is it what you thought it'd be

All the money that you're making, it can't set you free

You need to look inside your heart, you'll find the answers there

Love is all that matters, work hard for that if you care

Love is all that matters, work hard for that if you care

Love is all that matters, work hard for that if you dare
