Hard Man To Love

A phone call in the middle of the night, it never came

She's been walkin' on pins and needles waitin' for the phone to ring

To put her mind at ease

The suns' comin' up and I'm comin' in

With another "I'm sorry, won't happen again"

I can't understand why she never ran

When anybody in their right mind would

Yeah I'm a hard man to love

But thank God she does

Keep holdin' on, bein' strong

When "I'm sorry" just ain't enough

Soft as silk she stands

By her barbed wire man

She's never given up

I'm A hard man to love

There's a dog house rose that God knows I didn't send soon enough

Sittin' in the middle of a crippled kitchen table barely standing up from where I kicked it once

It ain't pretty enough to make up for me messin' up the only love a man could ever need

She shines forgiveness from her patient eyes

I don't see what they see in me

Yeah I'm a hard man to love

But thank God she does

Keep holdin' on, bein' strong

When "I'm sorry" just ain't enough

Soft as silk she stands

By her barbed wire man

She's never given up

I'm A hard man to love

But I found someone tough enough to love a man like me

In spite of the tears she's cried and the time she's tried so hard to love

This hard man to love

But thank God she does

Keep holdin' on, bein' strong

When "I'm sorry" just ain't enough

Soft as silk she stands

By her barbed wire man

She's never given up

I'm A hard man to love

No she's never given up

On this hard man to love
