Song Lyrics

I am like the ocean
Twisted as the tides.
Up and down emotions
Playing with your mind.

I will hurt you, just to hold you
Standing in the rain.
Thorns come with the roses
And I will bring you pain.

[Chorus]
Oh!
I'll make you cry now,
It's better if you know
I'll break your heart
a thousand times.
I'll say good-bye but
I'll never let go.
I told you that mines
A hard hand to hold.

Midnight conversations
Full of allabies.
Take a lot of patience,
To much sacrifice.

I will crush you
Just to hear you
Screaming out my name.
When your desperate,
Down and dirty,
You'll have me to blame.

[Chorus]

I told you, it's a hard hand to hold
(Didn't I, didn't I tell you? Didn't I, didn't I tell you? Didn't I, didn't I tell you?
I told you.
Didn't I, didn't I tell you?)

[Chorus: x2]

Didn't I, didn't I tell you?
I told you it's a hard hand to hold.
Didn't I, didn't I tell you.
Don't let go.
Didn't I, didn't I tell you?
It's a hard hand to hold
