Tough Man

I swear I could hear the sound of your heart

Beating louder every moment past

Terrified of what was in my mind

You pushed me out of reach, out of sight

I could feel the change move in the air

Knew deep down you didn’t want me there

I could feel your eyes just staring blank

You’re one tough man to break

Sinking feeling in my gut

Hit so hard, like an uppercut

You’re running away, all I want is for you to face me

I’ve tried so hard

You won’t play your part

Guess it was wrong place and wrong time

Saw you still held a candle in your mind

I’m losing each fight and I don’t know why

You won’t let me hold you at night

I could see your feelings pretty clear

Didn’t think that I’d be so aware

It’s not me it’s you who’s to blame

You’re one tough man to break

Sinking feeling in my gut

Hit so hard, like an uppercut

You’re running away, all I want is for you to face me

I’ve tried so hard

You won’t play your part

Heart and mind playing cruel tricks on me

Thought you liked how I was touching

Anger seething, bad blood boiling

You can’t scare me with your poison

I just want you to love me like you should

Or is it just too hard for you

Don’t know how much of this I can take

You’re one tough man to break

Sinking feeling in my gut

Hit so hard, like an uppercut

You’re running away, all I want is for you to face me

I’ve tried so hard

You won’t play your part

I’ve tried so hard

You’re tearing me apart

I’ve tried so hard

You’re breaking my heart
