Hard to Believe

Yesterday’s a by-line, words upon a page
Tomorrow is a deadline, sudden and it’s strange

Hard To Believe
You ever would leave, but you did
Hard To Believe
You ever would leave

Nowhere to go, can’t sit still
Look for a motive in the time that I kill
Thinking of ways
To fill up my empty days, to fill up my empty days

Hard To Believe
u’d leave when I need you
I need you so, it’s Hard To Believe
Hard To Believe
You’d leave when I need you
I need you so, it’s Hard To Believe

Love is such a fine line, the finest line I’ve known
But sorrow is no life line when you’re all alone

Hard To Believe
You ever would leave, but you did
Hard To Believe
You ever would leave

Can’t sleep a wink, up all night
The truth hurts, you know it cuts like a knife
Thinking of ways
To fill up my empty life, to fill up my empty life

Hard To Believe
You’d leave when I need you
I need you so, it’s Hard To Believe
Hard To Believe
You’d leave when I need you
I need you so, it’s Hard To Believe

Hard To Believe
You’d leave when I need you
I need you so, it’s Hard To Believe
Hard To Believe
You’d leave when I need you
I need you so, it’s Hard To Believe

  • Neil: Myron started it. He had the lyrics and melody for it.

    Myron: A lot of times when I write, because I am not a gifted guitarist, you just have to get a good enough idea that you get some kind of atmosphere or train of thought happening on it. The just come up with a melody good enough for Patti to want to improve on it.

    Pat: That’s our favorite thing, watching Myron sing.

    Myron: The worst thing is singing the idea to her. Another thing is, very rarely would all three of us, even if we’re working on the same idea permit more than two of us to be in the room at the same time.
