John Waite - These Times Are Hard for Lovers Lyrics

Babe, I had a dream, woke up in a sweat
Darkness all around me, I was caught in its net
Tried to reach for you but you weren't there
It only was a dream but it put danger in the air

I can feel the nervous rhythm
Of your heart with mine
Could we ever stay together
Stand the test of time?

Baby, make me a believer
'Cause this world will lie
(Oh, these times are hard for lovers)
It's getting harder for you and me
(Oh)

It's hard on me and you, baby, we can make it
'Cause our love will pull us through
These times are hard for lovers, it's down to me in you
Nothing's gonna break us if we hang on to what's true

These times are hard for lovers
I believe in you
These times are hard for lovers
I believe in you

Everywhere you turn, trouble going on
Living under pressure, loving under the gun
It's hard enough to live, draw another breath
Hang on to me, baby, like it's life or death

I can feel the nervous rhythm
Of your heart with mine
Could we ever stay together
Stand the test of time?

Baby, make me a believer
'Cause this world will lie
(Oh, these times are hard for lovers)
It's getting harder for you and me
(Oh)

It's hard on me and you, baby, we can make it
'Cause our love will pull us through
These times are hard for lovers, it's down to me in you
Nothing's gonna break us if we hang on to what's true

These times are hard for lovers
I believe in you
These times are hard for lovers
I believe in you

Can you feel the nervous rhythm
Of your heart with mine?
Could we ever stay together
Stand the test of time?

Baby, make me a believer â€~cause this world will lie
We've got to go the distance, touch the sky
Baby, we can make it â€~cause our love will pull us through

These times are hard for lovers, it's down to me in you
Nothing's gonna break us if we hang on to what's true
These times are hard for lovers, I believe in you
(These times are hard for lovers, whoa)

Whoa
(These times are hard for lovers, oh yeah)
(These times are hard for lovers, whoa)

Whoa
(These times are hard for lovers, oh yeah)
I believe in you
(These times are hard for lovers, whoa)

When I turn to you
(These times are hard for lovers, oh yeah)
Yeah, but I don't believe it
(These times are hard for lovers, whoa)

Yeah
(These times are hard for lovers, oh yeah)
Whoa
(These times are hard for lovers, whoa)

Baby, I believe in you
(These times are hard for lovers, oh yeah)
Baby, I believe in you
(These times are hard for lovers, whoa)

Baby, I believe in you
(These times are hard for lovers, oh yeah)
