Many thanks to April and Bill!

lyrics:
V1
Confident and full of pride,
Honest feelings once denied
With no one in whom to confide.
Acquainted with life’s darker side

Surviving such a long wild ride
Moments that he could have died.
So tough to swim against the tide
But no denying that he tried

C1
Just had to learn the hard way…
From willful boy to stubborn man…
Barely surviving day-to-day
Hoping life still had a plan…for him.

V2
Knowing love’s unlucky side
She learned to take these things in stride
Protective of the fire inside,
But unprepared when hearts collide

They met, she sensed his wounded pride
Feelings intense, his tongue was tied
A gaze from which he couldn’t hide
Walls fell down and tears were cried

C2
Their love grew the hard way…
Messy, yes, but always true
Step-by-step and day-by-day
Both needing to see this through…

C3
They found love the hard way.
Retaught each other how to dance
with grace and gratitude. They

were one another’s chance... to learn

to love the hard way…
