Things Only Years Can Teach a Woman Lyrics by Kayla Ray

Yesterday & Me

2018

Let me lie my head on your chest for just a little while
It ain’t wrong, see I’ve been gone now for so long
It wasn’t you who made me had to run away
It’s the sickness that I know pervades your mind
I didn’t wanna leave, my nights have been lonely darlin’
But I couldn’t sit back and watch you burn us both alive
Some folks said I should have known better
But those folks are better off not knowin’ the cost
There are things that only years can teach a woman
Like how she knows each time her man’s done wrong
When 1 or 2 with the boys lasts ‘til morning
Or how he whispers you’re the only love that I’ve known
Oh he whispers you’re the only love that I’ve known
I feel as if I failed you darlin’
I’m guilty, I left you all alone to fight
Your vices are stronger than I am
You’d reach to them, and I’d just reached out to kill the light
Harder still is that fate’s come callin’ darlin’
I never dreamed when I promised you forever that I’d lie
I’m sure folks said you should’ve known better
But those folks are better off not knowing the cost
There are things that only years can teach a woman
Like how she knows each time her man’s done wrong
When 1 or 2 with the boys lasts ‘til morning
Or how he whispers you’re the only love that I’ve known
Oh he whispers you’re the only love that I’ve known
See there are things that only years can teach a woman
