I knew when I met you

It would take you some time

To get used to the feeling

Of holding on tight

Felt the cold of our bed laying with you at night

Had the strength to believe everything was alright

And I stayed when I was angry

And I stayed when I was sad

And I stayed when it was over

Gave you all that I had

So don't tell me that I'm fragile

And not strong enough to leave.

Baby I'm not afraid of hard things

Baby I'm not afraid of hard things

The problem was never you not making me smile

Yeah we had it real good every once in a while

I tried hard not to need or to want things from you

Let you run, disappear, made it easy on you

And I stayed when I was angry

And I stayed when I was sad

And I stayed when it was over

Gave you all that I had

So don't tell me that I'm fragile

And not strong enough to leave.

Baby I'm not afraid of hard things

I'm not afraid of hard things.

I know how to make you happy

All I do is leave you alone

By the time you wrap your mind around goodbye

I'll be long gone

And I stayed when I was angry

And I stayed when I was sad

And I stayed when it was over

Gave you all that I had

So don't tell me that I'm fragile

And not strong enough to leave.

Baby I'm not afraid of hard things

No I'm not afraid of hard things

Baby I'm not afraid of hard things.
