Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's hard to say no
It's hard to say no
It's hard to say no
It's hard to say no
[Verse 2]
I'm ashamed to say that I couldn't help myself
This temptation is something else
When you're far away the isolation gets the best of me
It's a recipe I know all to well
[Verse 3]
And I try to vocalize
Exactly what I'm doing wrong
When your face is filled with tears
'Cause you tried to compromise
But you really can't go on
You've had it up to here
[Verse 4]
Now I would always want you
As a lover, as a friend
But some days a man needs space from his relationship
It ain't hard to comprehend
[Verse 5]
It's hard to say no
It's hard to say no
[Verse 6]
I've been around the world and back
I know what you associate with that
I know you have trouble trusting me but
I held my own (But I held my own)
It doesn't take away from the fact
Something changed the minute I came back
I haven't felt the same from not seeing you so long
[Verse 7]
Now I try to rationalize
Exactly what I'm doing wrong
When you face to face with fears
I know you tried to compromise
But you really can't go on
You've had it up to here
[Verse 8]
Now I would always want you
As a lover, as a friend
Some days a man needs space from his relationship
That ain't hard to comprehend
[Verse 9]
It's hard to say no
It's hard to say no
It's hard to say no
It's hard to say no
[Verse 10]
Now I would always want you
As a lover, as a friend
But some days a man needs space from his relationship
But It ain't hard to comprehend
