Karaoké The Hard Way Mary Chapin Carpenter

Show a little inspiration show a little spark

And show that things that drew me to you and stole my heart

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

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 hey

Everything we got we got the hard way

Hang on, baby
