HARD TIMES Lyrics

I gave you a hard time, I told you the news

There's no I'm sorry's, cause there ain't no excuse

The things I've been doing, the things that I say

The road to ruin, between you and me



My reasons for cheating, I don't know what to say

maybe it's nature, havin' it's way

You know that I love you, but that's easy to say

You'd make me proud of you if you would stay



I promised you sunshine, I promised you, you'd be all mine

instead of the good times, a killer came and took your heart away



I gave you hard times, baby

I told you truth and lies



I was silly believin' my lies could last

'cause sooner or later the rumour would spread

I often wonder how the things would be

If you hadn't found out about that girl and me



Can't promise you sunshine, can't promise you, you'll be all mine

I'll try to be honest, unlike the first time it won't slip my mind



repeat chorus



I look out the window, I watch the street kids grow

Life was so easy when I was that old

There were no lies and no things to be told

Just lullabies and time to grow old
