Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Way back when I was young
A minute from yesterday
They said to me, son be strong
You're gonna be something somedayThey 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 learnI'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 downI was young and dumb at the time
Believe me, I don't feel good
When those days are on my mindThey'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 bedFind 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 learnSo that's enough for now
Enough talk about the past
Ice just beyond the gate
We don't have to move too fastDon't have to pass some test
We don't have to get with the grade
Yesterday's years away
They flicker and then they fadeRaise the shade, look outside
Leave your dreams back in bed
Through the forecast said sunshine
It's raining insteadLike the morning headline
In the newspaper read
It's your turn
It's your turn to live and learnFind your shoes, walk outside
Shake the clouds from your head
Though the forecast said rain
You've got sunshine insteadLike the morning headline
In the newspaper read
It's your turn
It's your turn to live and learn
