The Hard Way

Show a little inspiration, show a little spark

Show that things that drew me to you an' stole my heart

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

And look at me as if I mean somethin' to you

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

You know the world won't stop and actions speak louder

Listen to your heart and what your heart might 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 luck, but by never turnin' back

Some will call on destiny, but I just call on faith

That the world won't stop and actions speak louder

Listen to your heart, to what your heart might say

Everything you got, you got the hard way

Caught up in our little lives, there's not a lot left over

I see what's missin' in your eyes, you're searchin' for that field of clover

So show a little inspiration, show a little spark

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

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

And the world won't stop, and actions speak louder

Listen to your heart, and your heart might say

Everything we got, we got the hard

Everything we got, we got the hard way

Everything we got, we got the hard way

Because the world won't stop

Hang on, baby
