[Verse 1] It seems your wounds take a lifetime to heal She hurt you young, now you're older You're living life in a fortress of fear Stuck in the past, growing colder (Growing colder)
Seem the scars on your heart want to bleed Love is lost, shrug your shoulders I know you're hurt but I've waited for years Let it go, let me hold you
[Chorus] I'll be as gentle as I can Love is hard for a man I'll be as gentle as I can Love is hard, love is hard for a man like you Holding on, stop holding on (Love is hard for a man like you)
[Verse 2] She never said what you wanted to hear I'll say it all, over and over I know you're hurt but I've waited for years Let it go, like I told you
[Chorus] I'll be as gentle as I can Love is hard for a man Oh, I'll make you understand You are safe, in my hands I'll be as gentle as I can Love is hard, love is hard for a man like you I'll be as gentle as I can Love is hard, love is hard for a man for you Holding on, stop holding on (Love is hard for a man like you) Holding on, stop holding on (Love is hard for a man like you)
[Bridge] Love is hard for a man like you Love is hard, love is hard for a man like you
[Chorus] Holding on, stop holding on (Love is hard for a man like you) Holding on, stop holding on (Love is hard for a man like you) I'll be as gentle as I can Love is hard for a man Oh, I'll make you understand You are safe, in my hands
I'll be as gentle as I can Love is hard, love is hard for a man like you Love is hard, love is hard for a man like you (Oh, oh, oh) Love is hard for a man like you (Oh, oh, oh) Love is hard for a man like you
