The Hard Way Lyrics

Every time I find myself sitting here alone

I think the world feels cold

So I put another layer on

And I thought living somewhere in the country

Would be good for me

But then

I didn't realise how lonely that could be

So if I lose who I am

Understand, it's just a bad day

I know by now they come around when it's their turn

Yeah we all learn that the hard way

So if I need a little help

You can tell me there'll be better days

I know by now they come around when it's their turn

Yeah we all learn that the hard way

The hard way

The hard way

Every time I find myself back where I began

I wish I'd learned to read maps better

Or write letters to my old self

So I thought living somewhere in the city

Would be good for me

But then

I didn't realise how lonely that could be

So if I lose who I am

Understand, it's just a bad day

I know by now they come around when it's their turn

Yeah we all learn that the hard way

So if I need a little help

You can tell me there'll be better days

I know by now they come around when it's their turn

Yeah we all learn that the hard way

The hard way

The hard way that life can wound

All the ruins laid bare for me

And I see it too

In my sleep, in my sleep, in my sleep

In my sleep

I've learned the hard way

I know by now they come around when it's their turn

And the better days are coming babe

I've learned that

The hard way
