Back when we started,
We didn't know how hard it was.
Living on nothing,
But what the wind would bring to us.

Now we've got something
I can't imagine fighting for
So why is fighting
All that we're good at anymore?

And sometimes I don't have the energy
To prove everybody wrong
And I try my best to be strong
But you know it's so hard
It's so hard

It's so hard, when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard, when it doesn't come fast
It's so hard, when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard

It felt like a given,
Something a woman's born to do.
A natural ambition
To see a reflection of me in you.

And I'd feel so guilty
If that was a gift I couldn't give
Could you be happy
If life wasn't how we pictured it?

And sometimes I just want to wait it out
To prove everybody wrong.
And I need your help to move on,
Cause you know it's so hard.
It's so hard.

It's so hard, when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard, when it doesn't come fast
It's so hard, when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard.

I can live for the moment
When all these clouds open up for me to see
And show me a vision
Of you and me swimming peacefully

Last night you told me
That you can't remember
How to feel free

It's so hard, when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard, when it doesn't come fast
It's so hard, when it doesn't come easy, easy...

It's so hard. (It's so hard.)
