Well, it's hard to live in front of the world
There's only so much that you can pretend
Write down what it is you're thinking
Take each day as it comes
You never know what's hanging "˜round the bend
And as far from the world as we get,
I can swear that the two of us will always be the same
Figure out what it is you believe in
And if you must choose, try not to trade your fortune in for fame
And you'll learn, learn, learn
You'll wait your turn, turn, turn
And you'll get sick on the way
By the things that people say
It'll break your heart against the wind
But you will just keep breathing in
Well, if you're scared to live in front of the world
I've got news for you, you should be then
When your confidence gets low and you've got nowhere to go
Just remember how you felt about me and our friends
And we'll learn, learn, learn
We'll wait our turn, turn, turn
And we'll get sick on the way
By the things that people say
It'll break our hearts against the wind
But we will just keep breathing in
Watch the way you fall in love
"˜Cause if you're smart, you'll take it slow
And don't ask me about it, cause I don't know
"˜cause I don't know, know, know
But I'm gonna learn, learn, learn
I'll take my turn, turn, turn
If I get sick on the way
By the things that people say
It'll break my heart against the wind
But I will just keep breathing in
