Why would you question a meeting of minds
A stray conversation, the passing of time?
I told you I'm harder than any you've found
But you broke me in and you broke me down

There's girls who give easy and girls who fold fast
And women who'll love you in spite of your past
So why are we trying to make this one last?
We don't have to be wrong, we don't have to feel bad

I said this is the hardest part
We forget who we are and forget what we want
If feels wrong, but I guess it seems smart

It's funny you'd say that; I've heard it before
I find it gets harder and hurts so much more
I used to be sweeter, you wouldn't believe
But these days they're all so much softer than me

I said this is the hardest part
You forget who we are and forget what you want
She seems small, but I guess she seems smart

It's a consummate cure
It was nothing, I'm sure
But it's better by far
Not to make this so hard
When they want you the way you are

Why would you question a meeting of minds
A stray conversation, the passing of time?
I told you I'm harder than any you've found
But you broke me in and you broke me down
