[Chorus]
It's much too much to bear

Your love is hard and fast
Your love will always last
And it's you I need, got to pay the levy
Got to pay 'cause your love's too heavy on me

[Chorus]
And it's much too much to bear

If I ever leave you, darlin', I hope you see
That I really love you but your love's too heavy on me
It's more than I can bear

When I make love with you
I do the things you want me to do
You never think of me
Always cry a bevy
A bevy of tears
'Cause your love's too heavy on me

[Chorus]
It's more than I can bear

There was a time I could give all I had to you
But my enthusiasm waned and I can't bear the pain
Of doing what I don't want to do
And it's more than I can bear
Your love is hard and fast
Your love will always last
And it's you I need, got to pay the levy
Got to pay 'cause your love's too heavy on me

[Chorus]
It's much too much to bear
Much too much to bear
Much too much to bear
Much too much to bear
