"Trials"
	JACKOPIERCE
	From the Album "Finest Hour" & "Decade"


	I like the way she calls me baby
	Hair pulled back to show her smile
	Coming in late she always says maybe
	We should wait a little while

	But I was hoping maybe one day
	We could have ourselves a little child
	Name him after her great grandfather
	Any thing makes her smile

	[Pre-Chorus]
	I know
	I've seen it before

	[Chorus]
	All the lessons I've learned
	All the money I've burned
	All the things that I thought were but they weren't
	All were trials that added up to her

	All these lovers making compromise
	Trying to sacrifice for love
	Hoping things will only get better and better
	But they don't
	They're only poised to see them fall

	[Pre-Chorus]

	[Chorus]

	All the lessons I've learned
	All the money I've burned
	She emanates light
	Hits I realize
	What I do not deserve I do not deny
