It's Hard (1997 Demo)

from Happy Songs About Being Sad by The Tomorrow File

lyrics

It's hard, I know
Because you're wondering which way to go
The decisions you make
Can bond or break your heart

And the feelings that you hold down inside
May be bottled up, but not blind
They can explode like a seed
and fill you with a need that grows

You're looking for direction
The doubt is written like a poem on your face
And I'm looking for connection
You are my lover, my friend, and I hope you find your place

I remember the night
That you came into my life
My blood was hard and dry
My sould was withered and twisting in the wind

But you came and you kissed it away
And I thought I heard you say you'd stay
Something unique is unfolding
Tell me that you'll help it along

We've known it
We've held it
We've tested and tasted
But we still don't quite believe it

Because it'll be long
But we can be strong
If we care
I will always be there

So no matter what distractions unfold
If you love me, then say your at home
With your heart in my heart
Tell me it's a matter of time

And I say I love you
I want you
But watch out for the silence
That can bruise you and beat you
