Mwheelerk- It's a great song, but the actual lyric is:
"I'm just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you
In my lessons at love's pain and heartache school"
And from the same songwriter, one of my other favorites (that always breaks my heart):
Some of them were angry
At the way the earth was abused
By the men who learned how to forge her beauty into power
And they struggled to protect her from them
Only to be confused
By the magnitude of her fury in the final hour
And when the sand was gone and the time arrived
In the naked dawn only a few survived
And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge
Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge
"I'm just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you
In my lessons at love's pain and heartache school"
