| [00:18.07] | Show a little inspiration, show a little spark |
| [00:26.26] | And show that things that drew me to you and stole my heart |
| [00:34.64] | And tell me something I don't know instead of everything I do |
| [00:42.95] | And look at me as if I mean something to you |
| [00:50.51] | Our hearts are beating while we sleep, but while we're wide awake |
| [00:57.70] | You know the world won't stop, and actions speak louder |
| [01:02.83] | Listen to your heart, and what your heart might say |
| [01:06.82] | Everything we got, we got the hard way |
| [01:16.01] | Show a little passion, baby, show a little style |
| [01:24.20] | And show the knack for knowing when and the gift for knowing how |
| [01:32.39] | And have a little trust in us when fear obscures the path |
| [01:39.13] | You know we got this far, darling, not by luck, but by never turning back |
| [01:45.14] | |
| [01:48.51] | Some will call on destiny, but I just call on faith |
| [01:53.75] | |
| [01:55.62] | That the world won't stop, and actions speak louder |
| [01:59.62] | |
| [02:00.69] | Listen to your heart, to what your heart might say |
| [02:04.04] | |
| [02:04.87] | Everything we got, we got the hard way |
| [02:08.06] | |
| [02:13.50] | Caught up in our little lives, there's not a lot left over |
| [02:19.62] | |
| [02:21.43] | I see what's missing in your eyes; you're searching for that field of clover |
| [02:28.87] | |
| [02:46.88] | So show a little inspiration, show a little spark |
| [02:51.12] | Show the world a little light when you show it your heart |
| [03:02.45] | We've got two lives, one we're given and the other one we make |
| [03:10.15] | And the world won't stop, and actions speak louder |
| [03:15.03] | Listen to your heart, and your heart might say |
| [03:19.28] | Everything we got, we got the hard (everything we got, we got the hard way) |
| [03:27.65] | Everything we got, we got the hard way |
| [03:32.53] | (Because the world won't stop) hang on, baby... |
| [00:18.07] | Show a little inspiration, show a little spark |
