As Hard As It Is Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Life has been quiet since you've been gone
It's no fun burning for one
I was happy before you came
Now you're gone, it's just not the same

[Chorus]
Lord knows as hard as it is
As hard as it is, he knows just how hard it is
Lord knows as hard as it is
As hard as it is, he knows just how hard it is

[Post-Chorus]
I missed you bad, I want you now, my darling
It drives me mad not-not having you here

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Lord knows as hard as it is
As hard as it is, he knows just how hard it is
Lord knows as hard as it is
As hard as it is, he knows just how hard it is

[Outro]
Lord knows as hard as it is
As hard as it is, he knows, he knows, he knows just how hard it is
Yeah, He do, and it gets worse
I know, I know, I know, I know how much it hurts
I'll tell you, I've been down too
I know how you must feel, it's true

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
