Live And Learn |
| Way back when I was young |
| A minute from yesterday |
| They said to me, son be strong |
| You’re gonna 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 |
| I’ve 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, it’s your turn to live and learn |
| So that’s enough for now |
| Enough talk about the past |
| Ice just beyond the gate |
| We don’t have to move too fast |
| Don’t have to pass some test |
| We don’t have to get with the grade |
| Yesterday’s years away |
| They flicker and then they fade |
| Raise the shade, look outside |
| Leave your dreams back in bed |
| Through the forecast said sunshine |
| It’s raining instead |
| Like the morning headline |
| In the newspaper read |
| It’s your turn |
| It’s your turn 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 |
| It’s your turn to live and learn |
