[Verse 1]
Funny thing about a mind lookin' for that brighter side
It's the only way that I can find to let my feelings hide
But every now and then, I falter back on old memories
And I'm right back in love again and back down on my knees

[Chorus]
And I'm finding out the hard way
There'll never be a time when I don't think about you
And I'm finding out the hard way
At least here in my mind, I won't go on without you
All the times I reminisce, I'm finally realizing this
Until it's gone, it can't be missed
But I'm finding out the hard way

[Verse 2]
Sure I'm gonna make it through, the sun'll overtake the night again
Then it's out of my mind with you and let another day back in
And for a while I'll carry on, but what you said is surely comin' true
And although it might not last that long, the times are not so few

[Chorus]
And I'm finding out the hard way
There'll never be a time when I don't think about you
And I'm finding out the hard way
At least here in my mind, I won't go on without you
All the times I reminisce, I'm finally realizing this
Until it's gone, it can't be missed
But I'm finding out the hard way
[Refrain]
I'm finding out the hard way
