These Times Are Hard For Lovers - John Waite

Babe I had a dream

Woke up in a sweat

Darkness all around me

I was caught in its net

Tried to reach for you

But you weren’t there

It only was a dream

But it put danger in the air

I can feel the nervous rhythm

Of your heart with mine

Could we ever stay together

Stand the test of time

Baby make me a believer

Cause this world will lie

(Oh these times are hard for lovers)

It’s getting harder for you and me

(Oh)

It’s hard on me and you

Baby we can make it

Cause our love will pull us through

These times are hard for lovers

It’s down to me in you

Nothing’s gonna break us

If we hang on to what’s true

These times are hard for lovers

I believe in you

These times are hard for lovers

I believe in you

Everywhere you turn

Trouble going on

Living under pressure

Loving under the gun

It’s hard enough to live

Draw another breath

Hang on to me baby

Like it’s life or death

I can feel the nervous rhythm of your heart with mine

Could we ever stay together

Stand the test of time

Baby make me a believer

Cause this world will lie

(Oh these times are hard for lovers)

It’s getting harder for you and me

(Oh)

It’s hard on me and you

Baby we can make it

Cause our love will pull us through

These times are hard for lovers

It’s down to me in you

Nothing’s gonna break us

If we hang on to what’s true

These times are hard for lovers

I believe in you

These times are hard for lovers

I believe in you

Can you feel the nervous rhythm of your heart with mine

Could we ever stay together

Stand the test of time

Baby make me a believer

Cause this world will lie

We’ve got to go the distance

Touch the sky

Baby we can make it

Cause our love will pull us through

These times are hard for lovers

It’s down to me in you

Nothing’s gonna break us

If we hang on to what’s true

These times are hard for lovers

I believe in you

(These times are hard for lovers whoa)

Whoa

(These times are hard for lovers oh yeah)

(These times are hard for lovers whoa)

Whoa

(These times are hard for lovers oh yeah)

I believe in you

(These times are hard for lovers whoa)

When I turn to you

(These times are hard for lovers oh yeah)

Yeah

But I don’t believe it

(These times are hard for lovers whoa)

Yeah

(These times are hard for lovers oh yeah)

Whoa

(These times are hard for lovers whoa)

Baby I believe in you

(These times are hard for lovers oh yeah)

Baby I believe in you

(These times are hard for lovers whoa)

Baby I believe in you

(These times are hard for lovers oh yeah)
