🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • You make it hard
  • Remember what we've said and done and felt about each other
  • Oh, babe have mercy
  • Don't let the past remind us of what we are not now

Echo the hook

  • And you make it hard
  • And you make it hard
  • And you make it hard
  • Friday evening
hardloseyours
