You've got to learn to show a happy face |
|
Although you're full of misery |
|
You mustn't show a trace of sadness |
|
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 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 |
|
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 everybody 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 should rule your heart |
|
You've got to learn from hard experience |
|
And listen to advice |
|
And sometimes pay the price |
|
And learn to live with a broken heart |
