The Hard Way Every Time
|
Written by - Jim Croce
|
Yeah, I've had my share of broken dreams
|
And more than a couple of falls
|
And in chasin' what I thought were moonbeams
|
I have run into a couple of walls
|
But in looking back at the places I've been
|
The changes that I've left behind
|
I just look at myself to find
|
I've learned the hard way every time
|
|
'Cause I've had my share of good intentions
|
And I've made my share of mistakes
|
And I've learned at times it's best to bend
|
'Cause if you don't well those are the breaks
|
Should have listened to all the things I was told
|
But I was young and too proud at the time
|
Now I look at myself to find
|
I learn the hard way ev'ry time
|
|
But in looking back at the lessons I've learned
|
And the mountains I wanted to climb
|
I just look at myself to find
|
I've learned the hard way ev'ry time
|
|
'Cause I've had my share of broken dreams
|
And more than a couple of falls
|
And in chasin' what I thought were moonbeams
|
I have run into a couple of walls
|
But in looking back at the faces I've been
|
I would sure be the first one to say
|
When I look at myself today
|
Wouldn'ta done it any other way
