Rock 'n' A Hard Place

(앨범: One Eighty - 1980)

I've waited twice as long as any man should
To tell you how I feel
You gathered in my chosen words
And ground them underneath your heel
I asked you for a bit of time,
A little breathing space
But your gift to me was
A rock n' a hard place,
Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
I laid too high a stake on loving you, babe,
To let you say goodbye
How could you think I'd last alone?
I can't go on. There's no use trying
I'm asking for a second chance,
A little saving grace
You're leaving me between
A rock n' a hard place,
Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
Won't you tell me why
You're leaving tonight
Throwing our love away?
Don't you see my plight?
It just isn't right
To be left this way
I've waited twice as long as any man should
To tell you how I feel
You gathered in my chosen words
And ground them underneath your heel
I asked you for a bit of time,
A little breathing space
But your gift to me was
A rock n' a hard place,
Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
Rock n' a hard place,
Rock n' a hard place.
