It was true when I started writing it, but by the time I finished it wasn't true of me or of her. But it must be true of somebody.

Worth The Trouble

You’re easy to love, hard to know
Easy to touch, hard to hold
The fun part is over, we’re in darkness now
We can’t break the code, no one knows how
Could have picked someone simpler and softer than you
You’re a tough project, but I guess I am too
I’m not looking for simple, didn’t expect it to be
You’re worth the trouble, I don’t want to be free

Chorus:
Worth the trouble, worth hurting again
Worth some heartache, don’t know when to say when
A little love’s easy, it’s the big love that’s hard
We’re in this together, you can let down your guard

I’m hard to love, easy to know
Hard to touch, easy to hold
I’ve got what you need, I’ve got what you don’t
Sometimes you’ll reach me and sometimes you won’t
Remember when I told you too much truth at the start?
You weren’t easy to scare, you knew love could be hard
So let me remind you when it’s darkness at noon
I’m worth the trouble, don’t give up too soon

Chorus
