Live, Learn and Laugh
Verse 1-
there’s a new lesson to learn every day
like sharing your toys when you play
riding your bike without the training wheels for the first time
scaring your mom half to death
when you learn to drive
you learn to read and write
how to pick yourself up after a fight
chorus-
everyday we get a little older
we grow a little wiser
mistake
after mistake
never knowing which road to take
step by step
keep both hands on the wheel
try to keep it steady
you never know which day may be your last
so you gotta live, learn and laugh
verse 2-
you learn how to love
and how to mend a broken heart
how not to quit once you start
to never give up
you’ll learn to dance
and stand for what you believe
you’ll learn to be all you can be
chorus-
everyday we get a little older
we grow a little wiser
mistake
after mistake
never knowing which road to take
step by step
keep both hands on the wheel
try to keep it steady
you never know which day may be your last
so you gotta live, learn and laugh
verse 3-
you’ll learn to live with loss
you’ll have to learn to say goodbye
how to dry your eyes
and that it’s ok to cry
chorus-
everyday we get a little older
we grow a little wiser
mistake
after mistake
never knowing which road to take
step by step
keep both hands on the wheel
try to keep it steady
you never know which day may be your last
