THE HARD WAY
How do you know a shoe don't fit
If you don't get to try it on?
Change your mind 'til you find the one
How do you know you got it right?
Unless you go and get it wrong
Twenty-three, that was me with us
But here you are in an airport bar
Can I clear the air yet?
Have we made it there yet?
Loving you is what I had to do
'Til I had to walk away 'cause
I thought that I could change
But you and I aren't built the same
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way (The hard way)
Went lookin' for the truth
Found findin' me meant losin' you
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way (The hard way)
Remember when we took the train
A hundred blocks out of the way
So we could talk and you could walk me home
You told me, I could take forever
Because I was worth the wait
That was love, I f**ked it up, I know
But here we are at an airport bar
Laughin' like we used to
God, I really missed you
Breakin' you nearly broke me too
Now, all that I can say is
I thought that I could change
But you and I aren't built the same
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way (The hard way)
Went lookin' for the truth
Found findin' me meant losin' you
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way
The hard way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The hard way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The hard way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way
But here you are in an airport bar
Can I clear the air yet?
Have we made it there yet?
Loving you is what I had to do
'Til I had to walk away (Yeah, yeah)
I thought that I could change
But you and I aren't built the same
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way (I love the hard way)
Went lookin' for the truth
Found findin' me meant losin' you (Losin' you)
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way
The hard way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
The hard way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
The hard way, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm sorry that I had to learn the hard way
