Judy Collins - Hard Times For Lovers lyrics

rate me

Seems it was just a while ago<br />

All of my friends and I<br />

Went to each other's weddings<br />

And stood by each other's side<br />

And became brides<br />

<br />

Talked to Kurt on the phone today<br />

He said that he and Liz were through<br />

And by the way that<br />

Things have been going<br />

You could that they were overdue<br />

<br />

For every other married pair of us<br />

That already split in two<br />

Each of us turning our own lives alone<br />

For sleeping with someone new<br />

Ain't it true<br />

<br />

(CHORUS)<br />

These are hard times for lovers<br />

Everyone wants to be free<br />

Ain't these hard times for lovers<br />

Everyone singing, I gotta be me<br />

Without you<br />

<br />

Now, honey, I'm supposed to tell you<br />

I've got to live for today<br />

And don't you know it is my lifetime<br />

I've got to live it my own way<br />

<br />

And lately, I can't help thinking<br />

I reap what I sow<br />

For all of my holy freedom<br />

What have I got to show<br />

I don't know<br />

<br />

(CHORUS)<br />

<br />

But lately, I can't help thinking<br />

I reap what I sow<br />

For all of my holy freedom<br />

What have I got to show<br />

I don't know<br />

<br />

(CHORUS)<br />

<br />

Ain't these hard times for lovers<br />

Everyone wants to be free<br />

Ain't these hard times for lovers</
