The Hard Way Lyrics - Singles - Carpenter Mary-chapin

Show a little inspiration, show a little spark 

Show the things that drew me to you and stole my heart 

Tell me something I don't know instead of everything I do 

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: 

(chorus:) 

The world won't stop and actions speak louder 

Listen to your heart, to what your heart might say 

Everything we got, we got the hard way 

Show a little passion baby, show a little style 

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 turning back 

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

(chorus) 

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, the one we're given and the other one we make, and: 

(chorus) 

Everything we got, we got the hard way.
