The hardest thing in the world
Holland fades, it don't please
I never wanted to leave
Searching for a perfect day
It never happens that way
A-hey hey hey
I'm sick inside
It's so obscene
Won't heaven help me be clean?
Searching for a perfect day
It never happens that way
A-hey hey hey
Cut away, I know your world wants you around
You never heard a word I said
It's sounded simple to me
That if you knew you wouldn't say
It never happens that way
A-hey hey hey
And the impression I get
As the story unfurls
Is that you're the hardest thing in the world
Cut away, I know your world wants you around
What you feel might not be
It seems so far to me
I cannot climb to touch your spire
I'm getting higher and higher
Cut away, I know your world wants you around
The hardest thing in the world
