You Took It So Hard

Cocker Joe

You're not sure how long it's been
Too long is all I know
You never knew what happened when
Your lover just had to go

Couldn't look you in the eye
Never really said goodbye
Even though you didn't cry
Sometimes you wished you could have

You took it so hard
When that world came crashing down on you
You picked up your heart
All those pieces on the ground off you

Swore you'll never love again
Couldn't see a new day when

Everything would turn around
Your heart would finally mend
All the love lost would be found
With someone new again

And you'd finally forget
All the sorrow and regret
Close your eyes and take a breath
And let another lover heal you

'Cause you took it so hard
When that world came crashing down on you
You picked up your heart
All those pieces on the ground off you

Swore you'll never love again
Couldn't see a new day when

They tell you keep the faith
That's all it's gonna take
But you know they are mistaken
It takes a lot of faith and courage

What if I would say to you
That not all love goes bad
What if I could show you
Would you ever take the chance

If I proved it with a sign
Turned the tear drops into wine
Would it make up for the time
Your trust was shattered

And you took it so hard
When that world came crashing down on you
You picked up your heart
All those pieces on the ground of you

You took it so hard
Swore you'll never love again
Oh baby, you picked up your heart
Couldn't see a new day when

You took it so hard
