It's all i can do 
to keep that little girl smiling 
and keep my faith alive 
takes all i got to hold on to tomorrow 
And you want to make it hard 
yeah, you want to make it hard on me 
Some other time 
i'd be understanding 
you were supposed to be 
the friend that i needed when i was down and now 
You want to make it hard 
you want to make it hard on me 
Maybe if i tried, i could turn the other cheek 
maybe, but how big do i have to be 
Now you want to make it hard 
yeah, you want to make it hard on me 
Maybe if i tried, i could turn the other cheek 
maybe, but how big do i have to be 
I need someone 
to put their arm around me 
shelter me from all harm 
just as i find something to believe in 
You want to make it har d 
you want to make it hard on me 
yeah, you want to make it hard 
you want to make it hard on me
