The Hard Way Every Time

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 wallsBut in lookin' 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 breaksShould have listened to all the things I was told
But I was young and too proud at that time
Now I look at myself to find
I learn the hard way every timeBut in lookin' 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 every 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 wallsBut in lookin' back at the faces I've been
I would sure be the first one to say
When I look at myself today
Wouldn't've done it any other way
