Love is Such a Hard Thing

Staring at the ceiling

Thinking what is it I've been missing

Through these 20-some-odd years that I've been here

Well I have had some lovers

But that just led to suffering

To dead end roads and slamming doors

So here I lie upon the floor

Staring up and beg no more

Heartache for this withered soul

So I'm asking

Why love is such a hard thing

I'm talking to the walls again

I swear that they've been closing in

In this one bedroom house that I can't afford

Too scared for something new

If the glove won't fit don't try the shoes

Just setting yourself up for disappointment and blues

So I'm crying

Why love is such hard thing

I'm looking at the looking glass

But all I see is my reflection looking back

And it's asking

Why love is such a hard thing

Oh why is love, is love

Is love such a hard thing

It's such a hard thing

It's such a hard thing
