Live And Learn Lyrics - Girl Talk - Lesley Gore

It's too late when you discover, 

You can't tell a book by it's cover, 

One heartache leads to another, 

Live and learn. 

Too bad we find out the hard way 

Why don't we do things the smart way? 

There's a right way and then there how it's 

Live and learn. 

People give advice to try to be your friend, 

That's so very nice, but in the very end 

You'll do what you want no matter what they say 

You'll do it your way. 

La la la la la la la la 

La la la la la la la la 

La la la la la la la la 

Live and learn. 

Well, when you play with fire, you know that you'll get burn 

When you fall in love, you know that you'll get hurt 

I'm the one who knows from experience 

I'm an expert loser. 

No more of sweet little girl now 

I've learned my lesson and I vow 

I won't make the same mistake now 

Live and learn. 

Yeah ---- 

I've learned my lesson and I vow 

I won't make the same mistake now 

Live and learn. 

Ooohh ---- 

I've learned my lesson and I vow 

I won't make the same mistake now 

Live and learn.
