Michael W. Smith - Live and Learn Lyrics

Always living and learning

Never should have tasted that forbidden fruit
Tell me why do I always do what I don't want to do
Now, I'm the only reaper of the seeds that I sow
And when I walk the field of my stubborn will, it's a hard row to hoe

There's a price for getting smarter so I pay what I owe
While bridges burn, let the shadow fall behind me
I am wiser, I know, we live and learn

Always living and learning, we live and we learn
Always living and learning, we live and learn

Is it out of the fire, back in to the pan
Is once enough to let it all sink in or will I do it again?
A time for understanding has now come of age
So I heed the word of the counselor and the voice of the sage

Try to see the meaning, read between every line
When pages turn, there'll be no room for explaining
What has been well defined, we live and learn

Always living and learning, we live and we learn
Always living and learning, we live and learn
Always living and learning

An engaging temptation had me doing time
'Cause when it starts a fire under strong desire
We are partners in crime

But hindsight is clearer, I can see where I've gone
And never return, it's a new man in the mirror
It's a new freedom song to live and learn

Always living and learning, we live and we learn
Always living and learning, we live and we learn

Always living and learning, we live and we learn
Always living and learning, we live and learn
