About the song
A couple of years ago we were facing having no kids around for the first time in 19 years. Music is the most powerful way to express emotion, and the blues was a great way to describe how this life change felt.
Lyrics
its hard love girl
you got to make a stand
tough love woman
you got to lend a hand
they got to live
you've got to give
give them all you can
its hard love girl but you got to lend a hand
we went to the well
we gave them all that we have
its their turn now
to learn that life is hard
but i've got to know
when the cold wind blows
that they are safe and warm
its hard love girl but you've got to make a stand
life goes on
and this old world
is turning way too fast
but when the time comes to let them go
you know this time wont last
you got to make a stand
tough love woman
you got to lend a hand
they got to live
you've got to give
give them all you can
its hard love girl but you got to lend a hand
we went to the well
we gave them all that we have
its their turn now
to learn that life is hard
but i've got to know
when the cold wind blows
that they are safe and warm
its hard love girl but you've got to make a stand
life goes on
and this old world
is turning way too fast
but when the time comes to let them go
you know this time wont last
