If you could see just how I feel
You'd know my love is real
Through the hardtimes emotions appear
Understanding and hope makes
You near to my heart
Only time will tell for the future
Fortunes made and lost, it takes years
I'll be gone but you know it won't be forever
It won't be too long
Hard times, blame it on the future
Hard times, you know it will be good
Hard times, you're standing on a gold mine
Hard times, you now I've got to run
You know I've got to run
Babe it's hard to leave you
When I'm gone I know it could be cruel
I'm sure our love we can't break it if we tried
Only time will tell for the future
Fortunes made and lost, it takes years
I'll be gone but you know it won't be forever
It won't be too long
Hard times, blame it on the future
Hard times, you know it will be good
Hard times, you're standing on a gold mine
Hard times, you now I've got to run
You know I've got to run
I'm in love with you
But still I have to run
I don't know if I can take it
But I'm surely gonna try
Hard times, blame it on the future
Hard times, you know it will be good
Hard times, you're standing on a gold mine
Hard times, you now I've got to run
You know I've got to run
