why must i

Why must I take it so hard

There's no light in the tunnel

Or dog in the yard

It's my fault for wanting too much

Going deeper than most

Getting harder to touch

I've known days when i'd

Wake up and say

'The world can get along just fine.'

So why must I take it so hard this time

Why must I take it so hard

With either bourbon or god

But my world became this one boy

It's the way that I'm made

Do you think I enjoy it?

I've known days when i'd

Wake up and say

'The world can get along just fine.'

So why must I take it so hard this time

I've known days when i'd

Wake up and say

(Instrumental

Be careful of the love you find

Be careful of the love you find

Oh, be careful
