Carpenter Mary-chapin 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, 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.
