The Hard Way

Mary Chapin Carpenter · Triple Feature [2010]

Show a little insperation show a little spark

And show that things that drew me to you when you stole my heart

And tell me something I don't know instead of everything I do

And look at me as if I mean something to you

Our hearts are beating while we sleep but while we're wide awake

You know the world wont stop and actions speak louder

Listen to your heart and what your heart mite say

Everything we got we got the hard way



Show a little passion baby show a little style

And show the knack for knowing when and the gift for knowing how

And have a little trust in us when fear obscures the path

You know we got this far darling not by love but by never turning back

Some will call on destiny but I just call on faith

You know the world wont stop and actions speak louder

Listen to you heart and what your heart might say

Everything we got we got the hard way



Caught up in our lives theres not a lot left over

I see whats missin' in your eyes your searching for that field of clover

So show a little insperation show a little spark

And show the world a little light when you show it your heart

We've got two lives one were given and the other one we make

And the world wont stop and actions speak louder

Listen to your heart and what your heart might say

Everything we got we got the hard way (Everything we got we got the hard way)

Everything we got we got the hard way

(Because the world wont stop) hang on baby...
