Hard To Do
Navigating Love's Challenges: Gavin James' 'Hard To Do' Meaning
Lyrics
Oh, I've been thinking that I don't wanna leave
Expressing reluctance to leave.
That this house isn't home to me
Feeling that the current place lacks the warmth of a home.
I'm tired of losing everyone I see
Frustration with the recurring pattern of losing people.
Now that you're here, it's a hard thing to do
Finding it challenging now that someone special has arrived.
Trying to hold on
Struggling to maintain a connection or relationship.
But I need you
Expressing a need for the person despite difficulties.
Far more than I ever want you
Acknowledging a stronger need than personal desire.
It's such an unnatural thing we do
Describing love as an unnatural, challenging experience.
When falling in love's just so hard to do
Highlighting the difficulty of falling in love.
Hard to do
Reiterating the hardship of falling in love.
But I need you
Repeating the need for the person despite personal wants.
Far more than I ever want you
Emphasizing the intensity of the need over personal desires.
It's such an unnatural thing we do
Reflecting on the unnatural aspects of the relationship.
When falling in love's just so hard to do
Reiterating the challenges of falling in love.
Hard to do
Repeating the difficulty of falling in love.
Maybe I don't believe that I don't wanna run
Expressing doubt or disbelief in the desire to avoid running away.
But two hearts are better than one
Recognizing the value of being together in a relationship.
You say you'll stick around but I'll be gone
Suspecting that promises of sticking around may not be fulfilled.
Oh, I'll be gone
Acknowledging an inevitable departure.
It's a hard thing to do, trying to hold on
Reiterating the difficulty of holding on in the face of departure.
But I need you
Repeating the strong need for the person despite challenges.
Far more than I ever want you
Highlighting the overpowering need compared to personal wants.
It's such an unnatural thing we do
Describing love as an unnatural and challenging experience.
When falling in love's just so hard to do
Reiterating the hardships of falling in love.
Hard to do
Repeating the challenging nature of falling in love.
But I need you
Expressing an ongoing, intense need for the person.
Far more than I ever want you
Emphasizing the priority of need over personal desires.
It's such an unnatural thing we do
Highlighting the unnatural aspects of their relationship.
When falling in love's just so hard to do
Reiterating the challenges of falling in love.
Hard to do
Repeating the difficulty of falling in love.
And while you've been pushing, I'm pulling away
Describing a push-and-pull dynamic in the relationship.
I wish I can say all the words I don't say
Expressing a desire to communicate unspoken words.
But I should stop 'cause we're miles away, we're miles away
Acknowledging the physical and emotional distance in the relationship.
But I need you
Emphasizing the overpowering need compared to personal wants.
Far more than I ever want you
Highlighting the intensity of the need for the person.
It's such an unnatural thing we do
Describing love as an unnatural and challenging experience.
When falling in love's just so hard to do
Reiterating the hardships of falling in love.
Hard to do
Repeating the challenging nature of falling in love.
