One more chapter in a book
A life lesson that has been learned
Place your fingers in the fire
You will get them burned
Do not batten down the hatches
No need to nail the windows shut
Just strengthen your defenses
And who you are somewhat
The winds again will come a calling
Once again they will roar
But when they beat against your windows
You will not feel them anymore

One more chapter in a book
A life lesson that has been learned
Place your fingers in the fire
You will get them burned
Do not batten down the hatches
No need to nail the windows shut
Just strengthen your defenses
And who you are somewhat
The winds again will come a calling
Once again they will roar
But when they beat against your windows
You will not feel them anymore
