Lyrics
Live And Learn
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's too late when you discover
You can't tell a book by its cover
One heartbreak leads to another
Live and learn
Too bad we find out the hard way
Why don't we do things the smart way
There's a right way and then there is our way
Live and learn
Ooh, people give advice
They tried to be your friend
That's so very nice
But in the very end
You'll do what you want
No matter what they say
You'll do it your way
Well, when you play with fire
You know that you'll get burned
When you fall in love
You that you'll get hurt
I'm the one who knows from experience
I'm an expert loser
No more sweet little girl now
I've learned my lesson and I vow
I won't make the same mistakes now
Live and learn
Ooh, I've learned my lesson and I vow
I won't make the same mistakes now
Live and learn
Oh, yeah, I've learned my lesson and I vow
I won't make the same mistakes now
Live and learn
