Maria Daines ~ Hard Knocks ~ Lyric video

'Hard Knocks'

Day's end finds you wishing
Don't look back on what has been
It's the old days you're missing
And everything in between

Hard knocks built your caring heart
Let it go and time will tell
Absence tears the pain apart
How we know our loss so well

Like a bird in an empty sky
Singing for the wind and rain
Not everything we leave behind
Was ever meant to stay

I know you can make it
Through the clouds and back to shore
Not everything we once held dear
Is for us anymore

You tried and done your best
Ain't no shame to walk away
Sometimes the broken fly the nest
And we can't make them stay

Like a bird in an empty sky
Singing for the wind and rain
Not everything we leave behind
Was ever meant to stay

Like a bird in an empty sky
Singing for the wind and rain
Not everything we leave behind
Was ever meant to stay
Like a bird in an empty sky
Singing for the wind and rain
Not everything we leave behind
Was ever meant to stay...
