Hard to Say

Hard To Say
when will i get my chance to make the lilacs bloom
to decorate the tomb with petals from the groom
who cried "the circumstance could never be assumed"
it's hard to say, it's hard to say

when will i get my chance to burn the shoulders of
the women and the men who dance when theyre in love
who give into romance like hands give into gloves
it's hard to say, it's hard to say

when will i get my chance to watch autumn leaves fall
to make babies crawl to windowsills and all to watch the colors change
and some children are so strange, some children are so strange

when will i get my chance to put you in a trance
a-watchin all the snow that's fallin even though
it never lets you down, never makes a sound

it's hard to say, it's hard ...
