Love Shouldn’t Be This Hard Lyrics by Olly Murs

Never Been Better (Expanded Edition)

2015

[Verse 1]
We close our eyes we're lost inside our minds
Can we face the ghost?
Can I hold you close?
We keep this distance like a mile between us
When will it fall?
This invisible wall

[Pre-Chorus]
And there's too much rain to hold it
In the middle of a storm up here inside of me
And you know it's time to show it
Maybe it's the secrets that will set us free
And there's too much here to blow it
Don't wanna walk away, don't wanna watch you leave
We're falling, we're falling, we're falling

[Chorus]
We write this silence like a quiet riot
We're like stars lost in the dark
Love shouldn't be this hard
We open scars, we end up breaking hearts
But we can't change who we are
Love shouldn't be this hard
Ooooooooh
Love shouldn't be this hard

[Verse 2]
You've got your weakness
I've found my reasons
We don't know how to say it loud
Something inside that we've been hiding
Together alone, what are we fighting?
Can we learn how to say it loud?

[Pre-Chorus]
And there's too much rain to hold it
In the middle of a storm up here inside of me
And there's too much here to blow it
Don't wanna walk away, don't wanna watch you leave

[Chorus]
We write this silence like a quiet riot
We're like stars lost in the dark
Love shouldn't be this hard
We open scars, we end up breaking hearts
But we can't change who we are
Love shouldn't be this hard
Ooooooooh
Love shouldn't be this hard

[Brige]
I push, you pull
I run, you crawl
And all we do is go around in circles, circles
Let's dry the tears, I'm yours right here
Let's strip ourselves of everything that's hurtful, hurtful
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Oh!

[Chorus]
We write this silence like a quiet riot
We're like stars lost in the dark
Love shouldn't be this hard
We open scars, we end up breaking hearts
But we can't change who we are
Love shouldn't be this hard
Ooooooooh
Love shouldn't be this hard
Ooooooooh
Love shouldn't be this hard
