Lyrics
[verse]
You went and broke a heart that never learned to bend
Now every song on the radio sounds like the end
Nobody warned me love could teach a lesson so tough
I guess I finally learned the stuff
[chorus]
I'm learnin' the blues, yeah, I'm learnin' fast
I'm learnin' the blues, from a love that didn't last
Every torch song makes a whole lot more sense
Since you walked out and left me tense
[verse]
The jukebox plays the same three chords all night
Every sad tune somehow feels just right
I used to laugh at fellas cryin' in their beer
Now I understand why they're sittin' here
[chorus]
I'm learnin' the blues, yeah, I'm learnin' fast
I'm learnin' the blues, from a love that didn't last
Every torch song makes a whole lot more sense
Since you walked out and left me tense
[bridge]
Give me some time and maybe I'll get over you
Till then I'll sit right here and pay my dues
Every heartbroken fool graduates someday
[chorus]
I'm learnin' the blues, yeah, I'm learnin' fast
I'm learnin' the blues, from a love that didn't last
Every torch song makes a whole lot more sense
Since you walked out and left me tense
