THE HARDER ONES
by jerry greene, 2001

i think i'm walking on a sinking floor
i feel a heartbreak knocking at the door
and the voice says "girl are you ready
for a bumpy ride"

making friendly with the blue jeans and shirts
apologies worth their weight in dirt
and the nights i couldn't tell the difference
between shouldn't and should

all that dancing lead to feeling fine
add some drinking and you blur the line
with an excuse so worn out and flimsy
he finally understood

i guess i like the harder ones
with the pain a little wisdom comes
like a dashboard light saying
"that was something worth living for"

i feel the heat from the august sky
on the porch waiting for good bye
and i'm hoping there just might be something
we forgot to say

i feel his arms around me once more
we cry and kiss i thought for sure
but he's still just watching the game
in the kitchen
