I should be glad you think about me
Do all you can to spare me pain
If in doubt, oh, you always shut me out
Never knowing I'm still taking the strain
It's a hard world outside
But you know, love never changes
Out on the edge of life
We find ourselves again
It's a hard world outside
And I feel your moments of sadness
You gave me the loving so why not the pain
And together we'll turn that tide
It's a hard, it's a hard world outside
What makes you think that I can't take it?
Where have you been looking all this time?
Too blind to see that I'm love's refugee
Getting nowhere but still holding the line
It's a hard world outside
But you know, love never changes
Out on the edge of life
We find ourselves again
It's a hard world outside
And I feel your moments of sadness
You gave me the loving so why not the pain
And together we'll turn that tide
It's a hard, it's a hard world outside
Yes, it's a hard, hard world outside
Out on the edge of life
We find ourselves again
It's a hard world outside
And I feel your moments of sadness
You gave me the loving so why not the pain
And together we'll turn that tide
It's a hard, it's a hard world outside
(Such a hard, hard world outside)
