Harder to Leave
We've never known the kind of love
That could burn the whole night through
I've never seen you get fired up
Any more than you needed to
Is there anything that you'd burn for
Has there ever be a flame in your heart
Will a fire ever burn in you
Or forever will you snuff out the spark
It's always been the same
Without a care, you're never to blame
So I sit here and cry
I don't even wonder why
But I wish I weren't the only one to shed these tears
I wish I weren't the only one to grieve
I wish you hadn't been so hard to love all these years
But I wish you'd make it harder to leave
I wish you'd make it harder to leave
So when I lay this burden down
Will you go and find somebody new?
To carry you on to the next town
And to love and to cherish you
Will you grace him with your true love
Will he find a new place in your heart?
Will the fire ever burn in you
Or forever will you snuff out the spark
It's always been the same
Without a care, you're never to blame
So I sit here and cry
I don't even wonder why
But I wish I weren't the only one to shed these tears
I wish I weren't the only one to grieve
I wish you hadn't been so hard to love all these years
But I wish you'd make it harder to leave
I wish you'd make it harder to leave
