So Hard

Album: Taking The Long Way (2006)

  • Back when we started
    We didn't know how hard it was
    Living on nothing
    But what the wind would bring to us
    Now we've got something
    I can imagine fighting for
    So why is fighting all that we're good at anymore?

    And sometimes I don't have the energy
    To prove everybody wrong
    And I try my best to be strong
    But you know it's so hard
    It's so hard

    It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
    It's so hard when it doesn't come fast
    It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
    It's so hard

    It felt like a given
    Something a woman's born to do
    A natural ambition
    To see a reflection of me and you

    And I'd feel so guilty
    If that was a gift I couldn't give
    And could you be happy
    If life wasn't how we pictured it?

    And sometimes I just want to wait it out
    To prove everybody wrong
    And I need your help to move on
    'Cause you know it's so hard
    It's so hard

    It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
    It's so hard when it doesn't come fast
    It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
    So hard

    I can live for the moment
    When all these clouds open up for me to see
    And show me a vision
    Of you and me swimming peacefully

    Last night you told me
    That you can't remember
    How to feel free

    It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
    It's so hard when it doesn't come fast
    It's so hard when it doesn't come easy, easy

    It's so hard Writer/s: DAN WILSON, EMILY ROBISON, MARTHA MAGUIRE, NATALIE MAINES
