Hard Times

(album: Dirtie Blonde - 2006)

The same old story
A girl meets a boy
And they fall in love too fast
But there's nobody
Who can reason with you
Before that sensation comes to pass

And you say you're in for the long haul
But your action's proving otherwise
Boy, you don't have a leg to stand on
It's the same shit every time

We've been having hard times
Living off the old times
Make believing everything is fine
Yeah, we've been having hard times
But I think it's 'bout time
That we make a change and do it right

You know I love you
With all of my heart
But it's an ache in my soul
And don't you know
I've been feeling more like your mom than a girl
And it's taking its toll

So don't say you don't see it coming
I've been giving you all the signs
And don't play baby games with my heart
I've been working for you overtime

[Chorus]

Baby, I've been trying to be patient
But it's getting kind of hard
Because you're making me pick up the slack
And you've been good at loving me
But there is more that goes into it
Than just all of that

You've been having hard times
But I think it's about time
That we make a change and do it right

[Chorus]
