Jaggedland |
Way back when i was young |
A minute from yesterday |
They said to me «Son be strong |
You’re going to be something someday.» |
They bought me some clothes to wear |
They gave me some books to read |
Took me to see Santa Claus |
Of love i was never in need |
But they never said things burn |
Or that i would have to live and learn |
I’d love to go back and undo |
A few things that i have done |
Got a handful of bitter regrets |
Like when i betrayed someone |
Who helped me when i was down |
I was young and dumb at the time |
Believe me i don’t feel good |
When those days are on my mind |
They’re gone now |
Not to return |
And we move on |
Trying to live and learn |
Raise the shade |
Look outside |
Leave your dreams back in bed |
Find your shoes |
Walk outside |
Shake the clouds |
From your head |
Like the morning headline |
In the newspaper read |
It’s your turn |
Yeah it’s your turn |
To live and learn |
So that’s enough for now |
Enough talk about the past |
Life’s just beyond the gate |
We don’t have to move to fast |
We don’t have to pass some test |
We don’t have to get with the grade |
Yesterdays years away |
They flicker and then they fade |
They’re gone now |
Not to return |
Still we move on |
Trying to live and learn |
Raise the shade |
Look outside |
Leave your dreams back in bed |
Though the forecast said sunshine |
It’s raining instead |
Like the morning headline |
In the newspaper read |
It’s your turn |
Yeah it’s your turn |
To live and learn |
But they never |
Said things burn |
Or that i would |
Have to live and learn |
Find your shoes |
Walk outside |
Shake the clouds from your head |
Though the forecast said rain |
You’ve got sunshine instead |
Like the morning headline |
In the newspaper read |
It’s your turn |
Yeah it’s your turn |
To live and learn |
Live and learn |
Live and learn |
