The Hard Way Lyrics - Come On Come On - Mary Chapin Carpenter

(Mary Chapin Carpenter) 

Show a little inspiration, show a little spark 

And show that 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, 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 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 we got, we 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 (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...
