Higher Education Songtext

von Will Dailey

I learned to dance
From a girl who could dance
Far better than I could even breathe
I learned to fight
From an old man who could fight
Chase the dogs from the night
With never having to swing

All that I wanted was all in my mind
And all that I need is to sing

I learned to crash
From a friend who could crash
Stop the world in it's tracks beneath his feet
And I learned to be kind by
Trying hard to find it when
Fear I think comes most easily

All that I wanted was all in my mind
And all that I need is to sing

I learned from a past
When the flags were all half mast
For the days when all our dreams were keen
I would learn to fade
Like the sinking sun then they
May help me and give me days to waste

All that I wanted was all in my mind
And all that I need is to sing

I learned to die
From a good woman who died
With her head held high in the wind
When my time arrives
And the lights gonna leave my eyes
It's the love that I find
That's gonna ease the sting

All that I wanted was all in my mind
And all that I need...
