You've Got To Learn lyrics

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 never look for sympathy.

You've got to learn, although it's very hard,

The way of pocketing your pride.

Sometimes face humiliation

While you are 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

And tell your heart life must go on.

You've got to learn to leave the table

When love's no longer being served.

To show them all that you're able to leave

Without saying a word.

You've got to learn to hide your sorrow

And go on living as before.

What good is 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

And listen to advice, and sometimes pay the price,

but I won’t learn to live with a broken heart.
