[Intro – Gentle bouncy guitar] Mmm… yeah… [Verse 1] Woke up this morning with the sun on my skin Another day to figure out where to begin Tripped over yesterday, laughed at my own mess Picked up the pieces, learned a little more I guess Life’s been teaching in the strangest ways Every wrong turn leading me to better days No need to rush it, no need to be perfect Just keep on moving with an open heart, that’s it [Chorus] I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ Learnin’, lovin’, livin’ every day I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ Taking the good with the mistakes I made No fancy answers, no perfect plan Just doing the best with these two hands I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ That’s the only way I know how to be [Verse 2] Music’s just a mirror, life’s the open road Every song’s a lesson, every heart’s a heavy load I mess up, I own it, I try to make it right Then I sing it out so maybe someone else sees the light From the quiet mornings to the loud mistakes Every chapter’s got a rhythm that it makes I ain’t here to preach, I’m just passing through Sharing what I’m learning while the sky turns blue [Chorus] I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ Learnin’, lovin’, livin’ every day I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ Taking the good with the mistakes I made No fancy answers, no perfect plan Just doing the best with these two hands I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ That’s the only way I know how to be [Bridge – Stripped back, soft and honest] Yeah I stumble… yeah I fall But I get back up and I give it my all Love a little deeper, live a little freer That’s the only gospel that I know, my dear [Final Chorus – Warmer, fuller with light harmonies] I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ Learnin’, lovin’, livin’ every day I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ Turning the ordinary into something okay No fancy answers, no perfect plan Just doing the best with these two hands I been learnin’, lovin’, livin’ That’s the only way… yeah that’s the only way [Outro – Gentle guitar fade with ad-libs] Mmm… learnin’, lovin’, livin’… Keep on learnin’… Keep on lovin’… Keep on livin’… Yeah…
