John Waite - The Hard Way Lyrics
Jenny's sitting in the carIn the middle of some abandoned Shoney's parking lotRipping off the filters off her cigarettesCrying, he loves me, loves me notShe checks her makeup in the rearview mirror and turns the radio onIt hasn't hit her yetBut all she's looking at is another lonely night coming onEverybody learns the hard wayThe hard way about loveIt's easy to think that there's something better out there somewhereBut make no mistakeEverybody learns the hard way about loveall she's gotOut on the tiles, out on the edgeHe's gonna give it his best shotAll that hard earned money ever got him was all aloneIt's two in the morning and the only thing that's falling is the rainAnd it's a long walk homeEverybody learns the hard wayThe hard way, yeahThe hard way about loveIt's easy to think that there's something better out there somewhereBut make no mistakeEverybody learns the hard way about loveEverybody learns the hard way about loveAnd in the cold heart light of dayRomeo doesn't always get his JulietYou take your hands off the wheelYour eyes off the prizeYou'll get a lesson that you won't forgetDown on your knees and regretChorus
