When I was a young man
My daddy told me A lesson he learned a long time ago
If you want to have someone to hold onto
You're gonna have to learn to let go
You gotta sing like you don't need the money
Love like you'll never get hurt
You gotta dance like there's nobody watching
It's gotta come from the heart
If you want it to work
Now here is the one thing I keep forgetting
When everything is falling apart
In life as in love I need to remember
There's such a thing as trying too hard
