Tthe Hard Way
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Show a little inspiration
Show a little spark
Show the things that drew me to you
And 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 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 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 missing in your eyes
You're searching 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 way
(Everything we got we got the hard way)
Everything we got
We got the hard way
(Because the world won't stop)
Bang on baby
