The Beach Boys
Hard Time
[Verse 1]
I want to understand
This thing called love
I need to give it all
Throughout my life

[Refrain]
Building me a rainbow in my head
Color all my feelings can't be dead
Yet it's such a hard time down to my close friend

[Verse 2]
The days are passing by
So many cries
You know it's awful clear
But wonder why

[Refrain]
Runnin' doesn't find the beggar's meal
Nothin' isn't ever too unreal
Yet, it's such a hard time down to my close friend

[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's, oh, so strange
And the pain will remain, still feel the same
I know it's only right to begin with myself
Keep on tryin'
[Refrain]
Hard time to live
Easier to give
Yes, and it's such a hard time down to my close friend

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
Said it's such hard time to live
Makes it so much easier to give
Said it's such a hard time down to my close friend

[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's, oh, so strange
And he pain will remain, and you still feel the same
I know it's only right to begin with myself
Keep on tryin'

[Outro]
Hard time to live
Easier to give
Yes, and it's such a hard time down to my close (Hard time down to my—)
Hard time down to my close (Hard time down to my—)
Hard time down to my close (Hard time down to my—)
Friend, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
