Never give a good thing up.
Never ever call it quits.
And if you find a way that works.
Leave the thing as it is.
You've gotta learn to take advice.
Sometimes you dont know best
I've learnt the hard way once or twice.
Thats something i will regret.
Dont say youll always be right here.
There comes a time when youll be somewhere else.
I know this might not help right now.
But i know every little bit helps.
You'll find out as your growing up.
This life is very hit or miss.
You should never expect too much,
and you should never give promises.
You've gotta learn to take advice.
'Coz sometimes you dont know best.
I've learnt the hard way once or twice,
thats something i will regret
[Chorus]
Now ive lost what you've found.
Maybe i did too little much too late.
But ill still hang around.
Sometimes youve gotta swallow pride.
Even though i know it hurts.
And though you wont see it then.
Your preventing
something thats worse.
I dont pretend to know the best.
Or even that i know a lot.
Im just giving you some advice, what little help ive got.
You've gotta learn to take advice.
Sometimes you dont know best
I've learnt the hard way once or twice.
Thats something i will regret.
Now ive lost what you've found.
Maybe i did too little much too late.
But ill still hang around.
Now ive lost what you've found.
Maybe i did too little much too late.
But ill still hang around.
Im sorry that we messed it up.
That you thought i was a waste of space.
I'm sad we didnt work it out.
Im sorry the time was a waste.
But remember when you think back then,
Without it youd someone else.
What doesnt kill ya makes you stronger.
I put that rule to the test!
You've gotta learn to take advice.
Sometimes you dont know best
I've learnt the hard way once or twice.
Thats something i will regret.
Now ive lost what you've found.
Maybe i did too little much too late.
But ill still hang around.
