Life is Hard

Life is hard my love
It wears me down and down and down
I guess we all face sorrow in our time
As you fill your way through, can you spare some room for my love?
We might share those burdens and some smiles

Who will be there for you when darkness calls?
Who will jump up to break a graceless fall?
If you, by gracious vow, choose me one day
I swear I'll stand by you, dear, come what may

Life is hard my love, but joyful too
I say and know that in the end, joy's best when shared with you
Love's no pit to fall in, but a peak long I've longed to climb
Perhaps then I'll earn trust and sweet peace

Who will be there for you when darkness calls?
Who will jump up to break a graceless fall?
If you, by gracious vow, choose me one day
I swear I'll stand by you, dear, come what may
