Hard Man Lyrics

Long ago you told me we could never be

But I still believe, yeah

And long ago I tried to show you what it means

The only one for me, yeah

And still I

Write the words to try express the way I feel

Only way to deal with a love that won't be real

If only

I could reveal, all the love I have concealed

In a place left behind long ago then it would heal and,

I know

I know sometimes I can't control the way I fall for you I know and

You see

Sometimes I get a little colder even colder than the breeze and

We go

We go to lengths far and wide avoiding questions that could show

All the truths to help us grow

We were young when you broke all my hope it was us long ago now

Now I've been broken hearted, somewhere romance departed

Along the way became a game played by loads who parted

Parted ways with the love leaving hearts discarded

We disregarded what was real to us became disheartened

I can claim victim to it, can't tell you who's to blame

Growing up became convinced that it was all a game

There was a time we showed affection without any shame

But through the many talking stages suppose that shit suppressed the flame and

I know your love could save me; the words you say could change me

Although I'm distant I admit that you still drive me crazy

Want you to feel the love I have cause you're the only lady

That makes me feel a million feelings with the words you're saying

I'd call you late night just to take me from the darkness

I'd walk the farthest, you're the one I like to watch the stars with

And regardless of the fact that I don't show it

The days I spend without you always seem to be the hardest

Everybody's gotta hurt sometimes

Cause everybody's gotta love

And you don't need to act the hard man

Saying that your heart ain't hurting when it is

And that's for sure

I was sat up on the train

Wrote a song about you but I threw that one away

Cause I was so afraid of how I felt back in that day

And I guess that you could say that I've grown somewhat but hey, they say

That love is only but a feeling

Passing through the seasons what we feel is more than reason

I'm saying that I understand the way you're supposed to treat it

Love is not just for seeking it connects us keeps us breathing

But hey

I guess that takes some time to learn

If I told you I was changing, would you take me for my word?

I know that over time I have seemed so unconcerned

I was battling the feeling that my fate was somehow curved

Listen to me

The picture now appears so clear

Despite the past I'm ready now to treat you right my dear

And I'm not just trying to say what I think you wanna hear

This is real

I'm opening up discarding fear, I can

Change

Everybody's gotta hurt sometimes

Cause everybody's gotta love

And you don't need to act the hard man

Saying that your heart ain't hurting when it is

And that's for sure
