Learn
Learn how to laugh
It's easier than being sad
Learn how to love
What you've got in life
Quit worrying about what you don't have
Learn how to treat each and every day
As the precious gift it is
And while you're alive and well
Learn how to live
We all struggle day in, day out
Working so hard to get by
We climb the ladder of success
But that thing only goes so high
And then the day comes, and you look around
You wonder where the time all went
You wonder where your weeks
And hours and years were spent
Then you start to panic
Because you thought by now
That you would have had more
And you start to wonder
If you're any further ahead then before
But just spend some time with a friend of mine
Whose life is slipping away
She'll tell you all you've got is more than enough
And then she'll likely say
Learn how to laugh
It's easier than being sad
Learn how to love
What you've got in life
Quit worrying about what you don't have
Learn how to treat each and every day
As the precious gift it is
And while you're alive and well
Learn how to live
Just think about those people
In their pain in New Orleans
Remember the day of the twin towers
Don't you know what lucky means
You've got everything you'll ever need
Right here within your reach
If you'd quit running around in circles
You'd hear the lesson life's trying to teach
And you'd take some time today, and you'd go out an play
With the children that you have
And when you're finished you'd pick up the phone
And give a call to Mom and Dad
Then put your arms around your partner
Tell them what you mean to say
In this life there are no guarantees
But we sure have today
CHORUS:
Learn how to laugh
It's easier than being sad
Learn how to love
What you've got in life
Quit worrying about what you don't have
Learn how to treat each and every day
As the precious gift it is
And while you're alive and well
Learn how to live
Learn how to laugh
It's easier than being sad
Learn how to love
What you've got in life
Quit worrying about what you don't have
Learn how to treat each and every day
As the precious gift it is
And while you're alive and well
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
It's easier than being sad
Learn how to love
What you've got in life
Quit worrying about what you don't have
Learn how to treat each and every day
As the precious gift it is
And while you're alive and well
Learn how to live
We all struggle day in, day out
Working so hard to get by
We climb the ladder of success
But that thing only goes so high
And then the day comes, and you look around
You wonder where the time all went
You wonder where your weeks
And hours and years were spent
Then you start to panic
Because you thought by now
That you would have had more
And you start to wonder
If you're any further ahead then before
But just spend some time with a friend of mine
Whose life is slipping away
She'll tell you all you've got is more than enough
And then she'll likely say
Learn how to laugh
It's easier than being sad
Learn how to love
What you've got in life
Quit worrying about what you don't have

As the precious gift it is
And while you're alive and well
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
Learn how to live
