[Verse 1]
Don’t watch me – I’m comin’
For ya on a Sunday afternoon
Don’t pressure me, baby
You know I’ll be there soon
It’s blossomin’, the love I’m givin’ in
Just keep on, keep on deliverin’
[Chorus]
‘Cause it’s hard to face
Another day
Believe me babe without your lovin’
It’s hard to face
Another day
I’m struggling
[Verse 2]
There’s nothing I wouldn’t
Do for ya, babe
I’ll change my ways
If it gets me close to you
[Chorus]
‘Cause it’s hard to face
Another day
Believe me babe without your lovin’
It’s hard to face
Another day
I’m struggling
[Bridge]
What I’m about to tell ya
May seem crazy, Baby
But I know that I love you
And I’m struggling to cope
You got to listen now
Don’t want you missin’ out
On a good, good thing
Got me spinnin’, turnin’ around in my sleep
Because this feeling is so damn deep
[Chorus]
‘Cause it’s hard to face
Another day
Believe me babe without your lovin’
It’s hard to face
Another day
I’m struggling
‘Cause it’s hard to face
Another day
Believe me babe without your lovin’
It’s hard to face
Another day
I’m struggling
‘Cause it’s hard to face
Another day
Believe me babe without your lovin’
It’s hard to face
Another day
I’m struggling
‘Cause it’s hard to face
Another day
Believe me babe without your lovin’
It’s hard to face
Another day
I’m struggling
