Thirsty Merc - The Hard Way lyrics

Here I sit once again I'm missing you like crazy baby I've screwed up again and again Keep making the same mistakes Don't wanna be an old man With nothing figured out yet baby I gotta start some time soon I wish I never hurt you I wish I never hurt you I'm doing the best I can Living like any man My father used to say to me – he said 'While you're young You gotta learn the hard way, son…' I can't call you up to talk I know you're moving on now baby You've learnt to steer real clear Of guys that resemble me now But don't I know I'm on my own It's all about decisions baby This was the ultimate test Once again I failed myself And I failed you too And it hurts like hell I'm doing the best I can Living like any man My father used to say it to me – he said 'While you're young You gotta learn the hard way, son…' (it's the only way you're gonna learn)
