/ MY KIND OF LOVE /

I’ve always maintained that I’m not the easiest person to care about.

 

In my own space I’m a little grouchy and obsessive about my work. I often reserve romance for my scripts and sentiment for my songs. It’s very easy to mistake my pragmatism for indifference, my need for self preservation (in light of my line of work) for selfishness and my deep dislike of Rooibos tea for…well, that one’s true.

My kind of love is unceasing, but it is tough.

Abandon all calls to ‘save’ me.

To fix me.

Because my kind of love is peculiar and hard.

It does not need to be softened for it to be love.

/ LYRICS /

You say you love me

And I know you do

You trust me too,

but I don’t trust me with you

 

You’ll try to change me

Don’t argue with me I know you will

It makes no difference

Cause you don’t have the will

 

You just walk away while you can

Was pushing me out part of your plan?

Please just walk away

While you can

Stop trying so hard to fix a broken man

 

Cause I’m hard to love

I’m hard to love,

love me,

love me,

love me

I’m hard to love

I’m hard to love,

love me,

love me

 

If you want to leave me,

I’ll let you go

But we both know you’d rather stay,

Then watch me blow

 

Please just walk away while you can

Was pushing me out part of your plan

Please just walk away

While you can

Stop trying so hard to fix a broken man

 

Cause

I’m hard to love

I’m hard to love,

love me,

love me,

love me

I’m hard to love

I’m hard to love,

love me,

love me

 

Love me

 

I’m hard to love

love me

Hard to love

I’m hard to love

Love
