I must have lost it on the wind

I´m no longer counting I´m not keeping score
I could say my list of lovers doesn´t matter anymore
But some are always in my heart
And some I´m not so sure
Either way they all left their mark
And for some I found a cure
[chorus:]
From one you learn something
Another you learn, nothing
And there´s one who might teach you everything
But before I learned to listen
And if indeed someone said it
Then I guess I must have lost it on the wind
Back when I was younger each one was a prize
Love just came along and hit you right between the eyes
And one was just a trophy catch
And one was like a curse
Some would want to bleed you dry
Some might quench your thirst
[repeat chorus]
In cold water I went fishing in warm seas I cast a line
And swore the heart I was reeling in was perfect at the time
You couldn´t tell me I was wrong, you couldn´t tell me anything
And if you did then I guess I must have lost it on the wind
I could say my list of lovers doesn´t matter anymore
But some are always in my heart
And some I´m not so sure
Either way they all left their mark
And for some I found a cure
[chorus:]
From one you learn something
Another you learn, nothing
And there´s one who might teach you everything
But before I learned to listen
And if indeed someone said it
Then I guess I must have lost it on the wind
Back when I was younger each one was a prize
Love just came along and hit you right between the eyes
And one was just a trophy catch
And one was like a curse
Some would want to bleed you dry
Some might quench your thirst
[repeat chorus]
In cold water I went fishing in warm seas I cast a line
And swore the heart I was reeling in was perfect at the time
You couldn´t tell me I was wrong, you couldn´t tell me anything
And if you did then I guess I must have lost it on the wind
