I woke up this morning wonderin'
If I slept any at all
I can't quite remember a struggle so big
Or ever feelin' so small
It took all my strength just to get out of bed
As the ache in my heart went straight to my head
I just can't keep my feet on the ground
I guess we all learn the hard way
I guess we all fall down
Sometimes the answers don't fall from the sky
Sometimes they hurt too much to feel
And sometimes you sweep the truth under the rug
And deny when it really appears
I know there's no use in running away
But it's hard enough to stand up and say
That I can't keep my feet on the ground
Guess we all learn the hard way
Guess we all fall down
I wish I could find a road out of this place
Somehow I lost my way
I want to show you the light in my eyes
And the smile upon my face
Maybe tomorrow is counting on me
To learn my lessons today
I'll start by taking a step at a time
And stop throwing my lessons away
I'll get myself up and brush myself off
And take back some of the pride that I've lost
'Cause you can't always keep your feet on the ground
Guess we all learn the hard way
And we all fall down
Oh we all learn the hard way
Guess we all fall down
