Lyrics Edwin McCain

Edwin McCain

Boom

Mamma said, "Let's shave my head today"

It's all gonna fall out anyway

The laughter rolled in first just like she planned

Then the tears fell out with strand

After strand, after strand, after strand

Love doesn't wait until it's easy

Love isn't only dancing under stars

Love's not just for rolling along like a summer song

Love's when it's hard

When it's hard and you don't want to believe it

You don't have enough hands to cover your ears and your eyes

When it's hard and you don't want to speak it

'Cause the only sound that comes is, "Why?"

Before I knew we were swaying like the trees

But they know how to bend and we're on our knees

I got a shock wave when it reached the speed of sound

By the time you hear the boom

The pain is raining down and down and down

Love doesn't wait until it's easy

Love isn't only dancing under stars

Love's not just for rolling along like a summer song

Love's when it's hard

When it's hard and you don't want to believe it

You don't have enough hands to cover your ears and your eyes

When it's hard and you don't want to speak it

'Cause the only sound that comes is, "Why?"

Love doesn't wait until it's easy

Love isn't only dancing under stars

Love's not just for rolling along like a summer song

Love's when it's hard

When it's hard, yeah, when it's hard
