You’ve Got To Learn - Live

You've got to learn, to show a happy face
Although you're full of misery
You mustn't show a trace of sadness
And above all don't look for sympathy

You've got to learn, although it's very hard
The way of pocketing your pride
And 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 child
Tell your soul that 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 sorrows
Go on living just as before
Ain't no use of 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
Listen to advice
Sometimes you've got to pay the price
And learn to live, oh Lord, with a broken heart

I said you've got to learn, to leave the table
When love's no longer being served
To show all the crowds that you're able
To leave without saying a word

You've got to learn to hide your sorrows
Yeah, go on living just as before
Ain't no use of thinking of tomorrow
Just relax, who knows what it may have in store

You've got to learn to be much stronger
Times your head must rule your heart
You've got to learn, from a hard experience
You've got to listen to advice

Sometimes you might have to even pay the price
Learn to live
Learn how to give
Learn to live
With a deformity
When your soul's been wounded

And you got to go on anyway
And you know it ain't gonna be no better day
You've got to learn to live
With a broken heart
