Learning the hard way:
Summer came too early
Springtime came too late
Weather went from freezing
To bleached out summer days
*Holed* up in your bedroom
Hiding like two thieves
Counting up the hours
For the perfect time to leave
Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
It just don't matter what they say
*Nighttime* through this desert
Driving straight out west
Stop for gas and coffee
Close your eyes for rest
I wonder what you're dreaming
While we're halfway cross this bridge
We've come too far to turn back
We're just too close to quit
Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
It just don't matter what they say
Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo
*Holed* up in your bedroom
Hiding like two thieves
Counting up the hours
For the perfect time to leave
Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
It just don't matter what they say
Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo
Na, na, na, na
Woo, hoo
Na, na, na, na
Who, hoo
Na, na, na, na
