Life Is Hard

The evening winds are still I've lost the way and will Can't tell you where they went I just know what they meant I'm always on my guard Admitting life is hard Without you near me The friend you used to be So near and dear to me You slipped so far away Where did we go astray? I passed the old school yard Admitting life is hard Without you near me Ever since the day The day you went away I felt that emptiness so wide I don't know what's wrong or right I just know I need strength to fight Strength to fight that world outside Since we've been out of touch I haven't felt that much From day to barren day My heart stays locked away I walk the boulevard Admitting life is hard Without you near me The sun is sinking low I guess it's time to go I feel a chilly breeze In place of memories My dreams are locked and barred Admitting life is hard Without you near me Hmmm, without you near me
