Hard To Realize Lyrics
At first just a shadow in the distance
Creeping up the holler with a gun
A moonlit silhouette but for an instant
Waiting for the rising of the sun
He saw her kneeling down in the meadow
Dandelions done up in her hair
Misty fog crowned her like a halo
Went and caught her fully unaware
Went and caught her fully unaware, Lord
Went and caught her fully unaware
He planned their life right out then and there, Lord
Went and caught her so unaware
Made themselves a home up in the holler
Built strong with stone, wood and mud
Joyful times surely were to follow
Sealed their love on parchment with their blood
Lo he was a man who earned his dollars
By the skill with which he used a gun
So he had to pack up from the holler
Told his love she was the only one
Told his love she was the only one, Lord
He told his love she was the only one
But he weakened from the flesh in his travels
And so their love began to come undone
When he came home from his journey
She looked at him, knew he'd been untrue
He lied and said he only could be faithful
So she did what she had to do
She packed up what she had and left the holler;
He was sleeping and never saw ehr go
Goodbye is what you say to a loved one

He wasn't one of those anymore
Not a loved one anymore, Lord
He wasn't loved anymore
Sitting hunched over on the floor, Lord
His love had gone away forevermore
Hard to realize the fruits of your labor
Hard to visualize what tomorrow sees
Hard to relinquish that which you savor
Hard to understand the pain is real
Hard to retort with no explanation
Hard to realize there was no excuse
Hard to understand there'll be no salvation
Hard to validate such abuse
Hard to realize he could have just let be
Hard to realize that man was me
