Why is it so hard to get to love?
Why is it so hard to get to love, get to love?
Her eyes filling up with tears
She says, tell me how it is
I know there's nothing I can say that'll make it all right
Walking out of room for the very last time
As I close the door
I realize I've been here before
I thought that maybe this was it
But it's falling apart
Another swing and dance and I'm back at the start
God knows I've tried
I've done it, I've done my time
God knows I've tried
Why is it so hard to get to love?
Why is it so hard to get to love, get to love?
Just when I get close
It all goes up in smoke
It's hard to get to love
I can't do it all again
I've lost all my confidence
There's only so many ways you can mend a heart
Filling up my brain with an empty past
God knows I've tried
I've done it, I've done my time
God knows I've tried
Why is it so hard to get to love?
Why is it so hard to get to love, get to love?
Just when I get close
It all goes up in smoke
It's hard to get to love, get to love
Why is it so hard to get to love?
Why is it so hard to get to love, get to love
Just when I get close, it all goes up in smoke
Why is it so hard to get to love, get to love
Why is it so hard to get to love
