Hard Enough

You let me into your life on a whim And there was magic and fire in the night In loving I was just a little boy I made mistakes that caused you so much pain All I know is that I’m older now Some people think that it’s best to refrain from the conventions of old-fashioned love Their hearts are filled with holes and emptiness They tell themselves that they’re too young to settle down Girl I promise you I’m older now And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you It’s been hard enough on me I wasn’t looking when we built these walls Let me spread my dreams at your feet Let’s not let time’s bitter flood rise Before my thoughts begin to run I think I’m getting older now And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you It’s been hard enough on me Can’t stand the thought of another,talking to you sweet my dear Where would I be tonight if you hadn’t held me here, in your arms? And this has been hard enough on you I know it’s been hard enough on me Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes And when the water gets high above your head Darling don’t you see, While this has been hard enough on you It’s been hard enough on me
