Words and Music by Larry Gatlin

Please wait while song downloads

The heart is a funny thing with a mind all of its own
It withers like a garden left untended and alone
And the thorns of loneliness invade and destroy what they can’t steal
So easy to hurt but oh, so hard to heal
I know, I ‘ve had it happen to me time and time again
It feels like being turned down by your one and only friend
So don’t fool yourself by saying that it don’t hurt, the pain ain’t real
So easy to hurt but oh so hard to heal;
Hard to heal
