Learn Me Right (ft. Birdy) Lyrics

Though I may speak some tongue of old
Or even spit out some holy word
I have no strength with which to speak
When you sit me down and see I’m weak

We will run and scream
You will dance with me
We’ll fulfill our dreams and we’ll be free

We will run and scream
You will dance with me
We’ll fulfill our dreams and we’ll be free

We will be who we are
And they’ll heal our scars
Sadness will be far away

So I had done wrong but you put me right
My judgement burned in the black of night
When I give less than I take
It is my fault my own mistake

We will run and scream
You will dance with me
We’ll fulfill our dreams and we’ll be free
We will be who we are
And they’ll heal our scars
Sadness will be far away

My Opinion

To me this is about the weakness of men in the light of the everlasting love of God. We're weak, don't know anything (for our wisdom is foolishness to God), but there's still a great future ahead of us: everlasting life in the light! We will be so happy, no more tears or pain. And the song makes it clear that that's not because of us, but because of His grace :-)
