Rock N' a Hard Place

(Kronsberg** - Puerta - Pack)
 I've waited twice as long as any man should
 To tell you how I feel
 You gathered in my chosen words
 And ground them underneath your heel
 I asked you for a bit of time,
 A little breathin' space
 But your gift to me was
 A rock n' a hard place,
 Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
 Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
 Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
 I laid too high a stake on lovin' you, babe,
 To let you say goodbye
 How could you think I'd last alone?
 I can't go on. There's no use tryin'
 I'm askin' for a second chance,
 A little savin' grace
 You're leavin' me between
 A rock n' a hard place,
 Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
 Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
 Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
 Won't you tell me why
 You're leavin' tonight
 Throwin' our love away?
 Don't you see my plight?
 It just isn't right
 To be left this way
 I've waited twice as long as any man should
 To tell you how I feel
 You gathered in my chosen words
 And ground them underneath your heel
 I asked you for a bit of time,
 A little breathin' space
 But your gift to me was
 A rock n' a hard place,
 Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
 Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
 Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
 Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go),
 Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow),
 Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
