Indigo Girls - the hard way lyrics

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)

hang on baby
