Lonely was the day that my baby went away
I know it gets hard sometimes
Brave was my face as I tried to stay away
I know it gets hard sometimes

Try to be a stranger to you
All it does is hurt us in the long run
Try to be a man, and do the best I can
In the end, we'll be fine
But I know it gets hard sometimes
I know it gets hard sometimes

Dark was the day that my baby went away
I know it gets hard sometimes
Broken was my heart, she left me in the dark
I know it gets hard sometimes

Try to be a stranger to you
All it does is hurt us in the long run
Try to be a man, and do the best I can
In the end, we'll be fine
I know it gets hard sometimes
I know it gets hard sometimes

I know it gets hard sometimes
I know, I know it gets hard sometimes
Lord I know, I know it gets hard sometimes
I know it gets hard sometimes
