| You’ve got to learn to show a happy face
|
| Although you’re full of misery
|
| You mustn’t show a trace of sadness
|
| Never look for sympathy
|
| You’ve got to learn although it’s very hard
|
| The way of pocketing your pride
|
| Sometimes face humiliation
|
| While you were burning up inside
|
| Facing reality is often hard to do When it seems happiness is gone
|
| You’ve got to learn to hide your tears
|
| And tell your heart life must go on You’ve got to learn to leave the table
|
| When love’s no longer being served
|
| To show everybody that you’re able
|
| To leave without saying a word
|
| You’ve got to learn to hide your sorrow
|
| And go on living as before
|
| What good is thinking of tomorrow
|
| Who knows what it may have in store
|
| You’ve got to learn to be much stronger
|
| At times your head must rule your heart
|
| You’ve got to learn from hard experience
|
| And listen to advice
|
| And sometimes pay the price
|
| And learn to live with a broken heart |
