Written by Bart de Win

lyrics

Loving is hard to do

I never asked for trouble
I just followed my dream
But every time I see you
Life gets rough around the seam

Maybe there's nothing more to it
And I need to learn a thing or two
But it's hard to see it's not about me
Sometimes loving's hard to do

This could've been so easy
Without someone troubling my mind
But we see our fate when it's too late
While love is all we hope to find
Love is all we hope to find

I'd do it again tomorrow
And let you catch me off guard
I'd lower my defenses
To let you creep into my heart

Years have flown by like a windstorm
And I never doubted me and you
But time has no clue
About feeling blue
Sometimes loving's hard to do
