Lessons Learned, But I Haven't Met You Yet

I have a new favorite song. It is "Lessons Learned" by Carrie Underwood, my new favorite artist! Carrie is amazing and I love all of her songs. I had never heard her song "Lessons Learned" before I bought her album Some Hearts because I liked other songs on it. I seriously listen to this song 10+ times a day. I know every word and I even printed out the lyrics so I could tape them to my bedroom wall. I'm seriously in love and here's why:

There are so many words of wisdom in this song! "When life gets that much harder, it makes you that much stronger," "I'm thankful for every break in my heart, I'm grateful for every scar. Some pages turned, some bridges burned, but there were lessons learned," and "You can't change the past, 'cause it's gone. And you just gotta move on." I've made a lot of stupid decisions lately and I've been thinking about past mistakes and then I came across this song and it was an answer to my prayers. Everyone (well except one person :) ) has made mistakes and has regrets. I don't know if I regret any thing per say, all my decisions made me the way I am. However, I do wish I would've listened to The Spirit and my heart and made a better decision. I definitely have learned a lot of lessons. Then I love how it talks about broken hearts and how you just have to learn from every one!

Which leads me to my next favorite song: "Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Buble. That one is pretty much self-explanatory. I have all these plans, hopes and dreams about who "he'll" be and what I'm going to do in my future. And I'll give more than I get, I just haven't met him yet!

Lessons Learned

- Carrie Underwood

There’s some things that I regret,

Some words I wish had gone unsaid,

Some starts,

That had some better endings,

Been some bad times I’ve been through,

Damage I cannot undo.

Some things,

I wish I could do all all over again,

But it don’t really matter,

When life gets that much harder,

It makes you that much stronger,

Oh, some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were,

Lessons learned.

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,

And everyday I wondered how I’d get through the night,

Every change, life has thrown me,

I’m thankful, for every break in my heart,

I’m grateful, for every scar,

Some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned.

There’s mistakes that I have made,

Some chances I just threw away,

Some roads,

I never should have taken,

Been some signs I didn’t see,

Hearts that I hurt needlessly,

Some wounds,

That I wish I could have one more chance to mend,

But it don’t make no difference,

The past can’t be rewritten,

You get the life you’re given,

Oh, some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were,

Lessons learned.

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,

And everyday I wondered how I’d get through the night,

Every change, life has thrown me,

I’m thankful, for every break in my heart,

I’m grateful, for every scar,

Some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned.

And all the things that break you,

Are the things that make you strong!

You can’t change the past,

Cause it’s gone.

And you just gotta move on,

Because it’s all

Lessons learned.

And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,

From everyday I wondered how I’d get through the night,

From every change, life has thrown me.

I’m thankful, for every break in my heart,

I’m grateful, for every scar,

Some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned,

Oh, some pages turned,

Some bridges burned,

But there were lessons learned,

Lessons learned.

Lessons learned.

Haven’t Met You Yet

- Michael Buble

I'm not surprised, not everything lasts
I've broken my heart so many times, I stopped keeping track
Talk myself in, I talk myself out
I get all worked up, then I let myself down
I tried so very hard not to lose it
I came up with a million excuses
I thought, I thought of every possibility

And I know someday that it'll all turn out
You'll make me work, so we can work to work it out
And I promise you, kid, that I give so much more than I get
I just haven't met you yet
I might have to wait, I'll never give up
I guess it's half timing, and the other half's luck
Wherever you are, whenever it's right
You'll come out of nowhere and into my life
And I know that we can be so amazing
And, baby, your love is gonna change me
And now I can see every possibility
And somehow I know that it'll all turn out
You'll make me work, so we can work to work it out
And I promise you, kid, I give so much more than I get
I just haven't met you yet
They say all's fair
In love and war
But I won't need to fight it
We'll get it right and we'll be united
And I know that we can be so amazing
And being in your life is gonna change me
And now I can see every single possibility
And someday I know it'll all turn out
And I'll work to work it out
Promise you, kid, I'll give more than I get
Than I get, than I get, than I get

Oh, you know it'll all turn out
And you'll make me work so we can work to work it out
And I promise you kid to give so much more than I get
Yeah, I just haven't met you yet
I just haven't met you yet
Oh, promise you, kid
To give so much more than I get
I said love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
(I just haven't met you yet)
Love, love, love, love
Love, love
I just haven't met you yet
