A Hard One To Know

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You call a truce and then you start a fight

You change your signals like a traffic light,

Cause you’re a hard, a hard one to know

Around your heart you’ve tied a fishing line

You cast it out there just to see who bites,

Cause you’re a hard, a hard one to know

I toss and turn but i just can’t get to sleep,

When i start thinking ‘bout what you do to me

You’re like a flower garden buried in snow

You’re a hard one to know

You give your love out like an auctioneer

Your moves are jumpy and words aren’t clear,

Cause you’re a hard, a hard one to know

At first you smother then you disengage

Your tears of joy dissolve the tears of rage,

Cause you’re a hard, a hard one to know

I toss and turn but i just can’t get to sleep,

When i start thinking ‘bout what you do to me

You drag your feet as you swing to and fro

You’re a hard one to know

And i try to love you but you won’t let me in

You say its ending before it can begin

You tell me to stay and then you tell me to go

You’re a hard one to know
