A Lesson

I entertain the idea
 Caught up like a movie trailer
 While you swirl your whiskey several times
 Make yourself feel like the conversation
 Is going somewhere
 And you're doing me a favor
 You're a good person
 Nevertheless a lesson
 ♪
 I take a pour to shut my mouth
 I've been racing like a thoroughbred
 I don't care for drinking anyhow
 It makes me nervous to lose all self-control
 When I've worked hard to gain it
 I see you're doing me a favor
 But I'm losing in the process
 Nevertheless a lesson
 ♪
 Handwriting on the receipt
 Only time I ever saw it
 Yeah, what about a card to me?
 Thought in vain, I'm feeling sorry
 I'm feeling sorry
 I'm feeling sorry
 Your generosity didn't go unnoticed
 ♪
 I just wish you were more than a lesson
