Billy Squier - Learn How to Live Lyrics

You got a lot to learn
You play in the fire
You might get burned
You gotta sacrifice
You're playin' the victim
Of your own device
Honey, you try to understand
The comb in the ashes
Isn't what you planned
Oh you, it gets you every time
You're chasin' the visions
They're nowhere to find

Learn how to give
Learn how to take
Learn how to live
Before it's too late

You got the restless eyes
They turn to distraction
There's no compromise
Honey you, you gotta take some time
And fight for the answers
They're hard to find
You, don't let it get you down
The best of intentions can turn around
Honey you, now don't ya fantasize (you)
Start makin' your chances materialize

Learn how to bend
Learn how to break
Learn how to mend
Broken heartaches
Learn to forgive
Learn how to wait
Learn how to live
Before it's too late

Run from the light
And you lock all your doors
It's harder to fight
When you've gone down before
The scene's are so right
But they play out so wrong
So into the night it goes on
And on and on and on and on

(Learn how to give)
(Learn how to take)
(Learn how to live)
(Before it's too late)

Learn how to bend
Learn how to break
Learn how to live
Before it's too late

Learn to forgive (learn how to break)
Learn how to wait (learn how to wait)
Learn how to live (learn how)
Before it's too late (before it's too late)

(Learn how to give) (learn how to give) (ah ah)
(Learn how to take) (learn how to take) (yeah yeah)
(Learn how to live) (learn how)
(Before it's too late) (before it's too late, yeah)
