"The Hard Way"

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 and 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

Chorus

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

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

Chorus
Everything we got, we got the hard way
