It's hard to say no It's hard to say no It's hard to say no It's hard to say no
[Verse:] I'm ashamed to say that I couldn't help myself This temptation is something else When you're far away the isolation gets the best of me It's a recipe I know all to well
And I try to vocalise Exactly what I'm doing wrong When you're face is filled with tears Coz you tried to compromise But you really can't go on You've had it up to here
[Pre-Chorus:] Now I would always want you As a lover as a friend But some days a man needs space from his relationship It ain't hard to comprehend
[Chorus:] It's hard to say no It's hard to say no
[Verse:] I've been around the world and back I know what you associate with that I know you have trouble trusting me But I held my own (but I held my own) It doesn't take away from the fact Something changed the minute I came back I have'nt felt the same from not seeing you so long
Now I try to rationalise Exactly what I'm doing wrong When your face to face with fears I know you tried to compromise But you really can't go on You've had it up to here
[Pre-Chorus:] Now I would always want you As a lover as a friend But some days a man needs space from his relationship It ain't hard to comprehend
[Chorus:] It's hard to say no It's hard to say no It's hard to say no It's hard to say no
Now I would always want you As a lover as a friend But some days a man needs space from his relationship It ain't hard to comprehend
