Live and Learn
Kylie Minogue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Live and learn)
Don't be afraid to
Do what you must do
(Live and learn)

You can never undo
Whatever's been done
You're so afraid
That true love may never come

Maybe tomorrow will bring
Happiness in
And in a little while
You could learn to smile
Again, oh, oh

But never give up
That's a big mistake
Be true to your heart
And even if it breaks
You can still

Love another day
Find another way
Take a little time
And you could find
That one day your heart
Will have a home

[Chorus]
Live and learn
When the morning comes
You'll see things in a different light
Give a little time
Don't be afraid to
Do what you must do
It's all up to you
To live and learn

What's done is done
Past is past
You can look around
But you can never go back, keep on

Living your life
Living it right
Take a little time
And you could find
That one day your heart
Will have a home

[Chorus]

To live and learn
(Don't be afraid to
Do what you must do
It's all up to you)
Don't be afraid to
Do what you must do
It's all up to you
(Don't be afraid to
Do what you must do
It's all up to you)
To live and learn

Love another day
Find another way
Take a little time
And you could find
That one day your heart
Will have a home





[Chorus: x2]

"Live And Learn"

(Live and learn)
(Don't be afraid to do what you must do)
(Live and learn)

You can never undo whatever's been done
You're so afraid that true love may never come
Maybe tomorrow will bring happiness in
And in a little while you could learn to smile again, oh, oh
But never give up, that's a big mistake
Be true to your heart and even if it breaks you can still
Love another day, find another way
Take a little time and you could find
That one day your heart will have a home

Live and learn when the morning comes
You'll see things in a different light, give a little time
Don't be afraid to do what you must do
It's all up to you to live and learn

What's done is done, past is past
You can look around but you can never go back
Keep on living your life, living it right
Take a little time and you could find
That one day your heart will have a home

Don't be afraid to do what you must do, it's all up to you
To live and learn
Love another day, find another way
Take a little time and you could find
That one day your heart will have a home
