Things I Learned by Motel Mirrors Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
I learned to rock in the cradle
I learned to swing on the dance floor
I can open my own doors
I know that boys can be cruel
These things I learned without you

[Verse 2]
I can drive on the highway
I can go where I can stay
I can shine through a dark day
I can smile when I'm blue
Some things I learned without you

[Chorus]
But there's one thing I didn't know
Till you took my hand and you told me so
I didn't know that you'd still be here
I didn't think it'd last more than a year
I didn't know that you'd be so dear, my dear
Oh, my dear, oh, my dear
[Guitar breakdown]

[Verse 3]
I can heat up a kitchen
I can work without bitchin'
I can watch without flinchin'
I've been a block or two
These things I learned without you

[Outro]
But there's one thing I didn't know
Till you took my hand and you told me so
I didn't know that you'd still be here
I didn't think it'd last more than a year
I didn't know that you'd still be here, my dear
Oh, my dear, oh, my dear
