Hard Love
Looking back I felt a false sense of safety
Almost as if we weren't hanging by a thread
Looking back I thought that loving you was easy
Looking back into the back of my head

I saw a fire floating out of your eyes
I saw our love before you willed it to die
I saw the water in the river had dried up
And now I know what I didn't know then

That it's a hard love……
a hard love
It's a hard love to be in

A hard love
Hard Love
It's a hard love to be in

It's hard to handle how you see me as a stranger
A couple months and you'd forgotten where we'd been
Maybe down the road you'll call and we'll exchange words
Maybe down that road I'll understand when

I saw fire floating out of your eyes
I saw our love before you willed it to die
I saw the water in the river had dried up
And now I know what I didn't know then

That it's a hard love……
a hard love
It's a hard love to be in

A hard love
Hard Love
It's a hard love to be in

Some days I wonder if a part of you might need me
A selfish thought that keeps me hanging by a thread
Still I tell myself that love is never easy
And push the bad days to the back of my head
