Step into the parlor
We'll laugh about the weather
How do you hide the earth from the sun
Why pretend when it's already done
I'd like to sweep myself under the rug

It's a hard thing to take
Being loved is a hard thing to take

We will go from the first
We are known
We are known
It's a hard thing to take
Being loved is a hard thing to take
I will try, I will try
Being loved being loved
I will try
