Mary Chapin Carpenter (born February 21, 1958) is an American folk and country music singer, songwriter and musician. Carpenter spent several years singing in Washington, D.C. clubs before signing in the late 1980s with Columbia Records, who marketed her as a country singer. Carpenter's first album, 1987's Hometown Girl, did not produce any singles, although 1989's State of the Heart and 1990's Shooting Straight in the Dark each produced four Top 20 hits on the Billboard country singles charts. more »

Show a little inspiration, show a little spark
And show that things that drew me to you and stole my heart
And tell me something I don't know instead of everything I do
And look at me as if I mean something to you

Our hearts are beating while we sleep, but while we're wide awake
You know the world won't stop, actions speak louder
Listen to your heart, what your heart might say
Everything we got, we got the hard way

Show a little passion, baby, show a little style
And show the knack for knowing when and the gift for knowing how
And have a little trust in us when fear obscures the path
You know we got this far, darling, not by luck
But by never turning back, no turning back

Some will call on destiny, but I just call on faith
'Cause the world won't stop, actions speak louder
Listen to your heart, to what your heart might say
Everything you got, you got the hard way

Caught up in our little lives, there's not a lot left over
I see what's missing in your eyes
You're searching for that field of clover

So show a little inspiration, show a little spark
Show the world a great big light when you show it your heart
We've got two lives, one we're given and the other one we make

And the world won't stop, actions speak louder
Listen to your heart, and your heart will say
Everything we got, we got the hard way
Everything we got, we got the hard way
Everything we got, we got the hard way

Because the world won't stop
Hang on, baby
