Lyrics
"NOT GONNA TAKE IT SO HARD"
Can't pretend I'm still in love
You built a wall I can't rise above
Can't deny I'm growing cold
A captive to this band of gold
Whoa oh of gold - Mm mm mm
Can't explain why feelings died
We both know how hard I tried
The words fall like silent rain
How long can I wear this ball and chain?
CHORUS
Oh when it's over
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
And when I go you'll know that it's over
Not gonna' take it so hard
Thinkin' how it used to be
When passion burned in the third degree
Our makin' love all night long
But the fire's out and those days are gone
Woah woah they're gone mm mm mm
Ya' can't say we never knew
The day would come when we'd be through
I can't begin to even cry
When I can't find my tears hidden in my eyes
CHORUS
Oh when it's over
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
And when I go you'll know that it's over
Not gonna' take it so hard
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
BRIDGE
I know you know what I'm talkin' about
I keep hopin' there'll be better days
But they're no where to be found
You keep sayin' that you'll change your ways
But someday I just won't be around
You know I wo-wo-wo-won't be around
GUITAR SOLO
CHORUS
Oh when it's over
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
And when I go you'll know that it's over
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
I know you know what I'm talkin' about
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
And when it's over there ain't no doubt
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
I'm not gonna' take it
I'm not gonna' take it
I'm not gonna' take it so hard
Woah oh oh oh
