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?
23, that was me with us

But here you are at 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)
When looking for the truth
Found finding me meant losing you
I'm sorry that I had to learn 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 fucked it up, I know

But here we are at an airport bar
Laughing like we used to
God, I really missed you
Breaking 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)
When looking for the truth
Found finding me meant losing 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 at an airport bar
Can I clear the air yet?
Have we made it there yet?
Loving you is what I had to do
Too hard 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 (the hard way, I learned the hard way)
When looking for the truth
Found finding me meant losing 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
