With fortunes rocks, millstones you hang round my throat
And a brick for my window weighted down with a note
Oh, the heart has no bones you say so it wont break
But that new thing youve got Ive got no clue what its for
I hope you find someone just as hard as you come
Im trying hard to love you, Im looking for an easy way
But the purpose of loving is the pounding it takes
Im your curtains best friend
Im trying hard to love you, you dont make it easy, babe
Im trying hard to love you, you dont make it easy, babe
In this hard world sadly thats so easily done
Im trying hard to love you, you dont make it easy, babe
Im trying hard to love you, you dont make it easy, babe
Your friends ask about me, you say I can be found
Im trying hard to love you, Im looking for an easy way
Im trying hard to love you, Im looking for an easy way
The ropes that have bound me leave no marks by their knots
Im trying hard to love you, Im looking for an easy way
Im trying hard to love you, you dont make it easy, babe
With the cheap romance novels, with their spines battered down
And though theyre your hair, that dont mean Im not caught
I know the song of the handcuffs as they scrape across the floor
Im your locked doors worst knocker
