It's all I can do
To keep that little girl smiling
And keep my faith alive.
Takes all I got to hold on to tomorrow,
And you want to make it hard,
You want to make it hard on me.
Some other time
I'd be understanding
You were supposed to be
The friend that I needed when I was down and now
You want to make it hard
Yeah, you want to make it hard on me
Maybe if I tried, I could turn the other cheek,
Maybe, but how big do I have to be?
Now you want to make it hard,
Yeah, you want to make it hard on me.
Maybe if I tried, I could turn the other cheek,
Maybe, but how big do I have to be?
I need someone
To put their arm around me,
Shelter me from all harm,
Just as I find something to believe in,
You want to make it hard,
You want to make it hard on me.
Yeah, you want to make it hard,
You want to make it hard on me.
