Please don’t take this the hard way We been takin’ the hard way Gotta clear my head and find that peace of mind So delicate, I need to take my time And I wait… For an answer But it never comes No I never got quite used to the idea Of a world that still exists without you here Where it starts and how it ends Guess we never know the plan Well I left it all behind some secret door In a place I used to go but not no more And I can't, can’t compete with who I used to be Please don’t take this the hard way We been takin’ the hard way You should know it wasn’t you but rather something stuck in me And I never took for granted all your gifts and memories And I swear that I'm fine Gonna get it right this time And I guess I loved it more than I could ever love myself 'Cause I left a real big part of me back there with someone else When I look at all the reasons They never make much sense at all And there's nothing you can say to me that’ll help me to forget And I don’t know when the time will come But I know it ain’t just yet So I’ll go out to find what it is I'm looking for Oh here I go out to find what is I'm looking for We been takin’ the hard way
